Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A lion and a tiger fighting over a fallen stag before a classical sarcophagus in a cave, a landscape with a pyramid beyond by Carl Borromäus Andreas Ruthart was sold in the Old Masters Day Sale auction at Christies in London in December 2016. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 27,500.00 (€ 32,151.96) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Carl Borromäus Andreas Ruthart - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A lion and a tiger fighting over a fallen stag before a classical sarcophagus in a cave, a landscape with a pyramid beyond, which sold at auction in July 2000 for GBP 58,750.00 (€ 94,997.98).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A lion and a tiger fighting over a fallen stag before a classical sarcophagus in a cave, a landscape with a pyramid beyond von Carl Borromäus Andreas Ruthart wurde im Dezember 2016 in der Auktion Old Masters Day Sale bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 27.500,00 (€ 32.151,96) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Carl Borromäus Andreas Ruthart mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A lion and a tiger fighting over a fallen stag before a classical sarcophagus in a cave, a landscape with a pyramid beyond beobachtet, die im Juli 2000 für GBP 58.750,00 (€ 94.997,98) versteigert wurde.
