This artwork by Augustin Brunias achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2019. In the Topographical Pictures including Selections from the Kelton Collection auction, the work Caribs of St Vincent sold for GBP 75,000.00 (€ 86,994.62) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Augustin Brunias - we have observed the highest auction result to date for 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, which sold at auction in June last year for USD 214,200.00 (€ 204,604.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Augustin Brunias erzielte im Oktober 2019 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Topographical Pictures including Selections from the Kelton Collection wurde die Arbeit Caribs of St Vincent für GBP 75.000,00 (€ 86.994,62) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 30.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Augustin Brunias mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für 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 beobachtet, die im Juni letzten Jahres für USD 214.200,00 (€ 204.604,07) versteigert wurde.
