A top price for Augustin de Saint-Aubin - as previously expected
The work The 'Valide', The Sultan'S Mother by Augustin de Saint-Aubin was sold in the Old Master Drawings auction at Sothebys in New York in January 2012. The price achieved of USD 25,000.00 (€ 19,152.69) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The 'Valide', The Sultan'S Mother is the most expensive artwork by Augustin de Saint-Aubin that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit The 'Valide', The Sultan'S Mother von Augustin de Saint-Aubin wurde im Januar 2012 in der Auktion Old Master Drawings bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 25.000,00 (€ 19.152,69) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The 'Valide', The Sultan'S Mother das teuerste Kunstwerk von Augustin de Saint-Aubin, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
