Despite a disappointment, a good price for Auguste Clésinger

This work of art by Auguste Clésinger could be acquired at Sothebys in Paris in March 2019 for an unexpectedly low price. In the L’art c’est la vie auction, the work Helen Of Troy changed hands for EUR 47,500.00 - missing the lower end of the estimate range of EUR 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, Helen Of Troy is the most expensive artwork by Auguste Clésinger that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Auguste Clésinger

Dieses Kunstwerk von Auguste Clésinger konnte im März 2019 bei Sothebys in Paris für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion L’art c’est la vie wechselte die Arbeit Helen Of Troy für EUR 47.500,00 den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 50.000,00 – 70.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Helen Of Troy das teuerste Kunstwerk von Auguste Clésinger, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
