Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In September 2011 Christies in London held the auction Travel, Science and Natural History, which included the work A free woman of colour and her child with attendants, Dominica by Augustin Brunias. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 15,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 16,250.00 (€ 18,877.98). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Augustin Brunias achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Free Women Of Dominica Bathing In A Stream; Free Women Of Dominica; A Young Couple And Child Promenading, Dominica; Flower Girls Of Dominica; Free Women Of Dominica With Child; And A Native Family Of St. Vincent in June last year with an auction result of USD 214,200.00 (€ 204,604.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im September 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Travel, Science and Natural History durch, in der auch die Arbeit A free woman of colour and her child with attendants, Dominica von Augustin Brunias zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 15.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 16.250,00 (€ 18.877,98) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Augustin Brunias erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Free Women Of Dominica Bathing In A Stream; Free Women Of Dominica; A Young Couple And Child Promenading, Dominica; Flower Girls Of Dominica; Free Women Of Dominica With Child; And A Native Family Of St. Vincent im Juni letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 214.200,00 (€ 204.604,07).
