Despite a disappointment, a good price for Basile Lemeunier
When the work Élégantes en promenade by Basile Lemeunier was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 25,000.00 (€ 21,462.91). Despite this disappointing result, Élégantes en promenade is the most expensive artwork by Basile Lemeunier that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Basile Lemeunier
Als die Arbeit Élégantes en promenade von Basile Lemeunier im Oktober 2017 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 25.000,00 (€ 21.462,91) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Élégantes en promenade das teuerste Kunstwerk von Basile Lemeunier, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
