19¼ x 27¼ in. (49.5 x 69.5 cm.)
a pair (2)

Auction result well in line with expectations

In October 2011 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters & 19th Century Art, which included the work An introduction; and A merry tune by Antonio María Fabrés y Costa. The price achieved of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 5,786.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Antonio María Fabrés y Costa achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Guard in April 2015 with an auction result of USD 545,000.00 (€ 488,263.75).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Oktober 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters & 19th Century Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit An introduction; and A merry tune von Antonio María Fabrés y Costa zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 5.786,55) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Antonio María Fabrés y Costa erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Guard im April 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 545.000,00 (€ 488.263,75).
