Auction result fails to reach estimate
In August this year a collector was able to acquire the work Streetview from Reersø with two women carrying a basket above their heads by Carl Wentorf for DKK 3,000.00 (€ 402.44). This price was achieved in the auction Paintings, furniture and varia at Bruun Rasmussen and was even lower than the DKK 6,000.00 estimate set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Carl Wentorf - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of Mrs H. Wichfeld (1849-1907), quarter-length, in a brown suit and green hat, a woodland beyond; and Portrait of E. Wichfeld Esq., quarter-length, in a white lace dress with a yellow rose, which sold at auction in October 2007 for GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,436.07).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt den Schätzpreis
Im August diesen Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Streetview from Reersø with two women carrying a basket above their heads von Carl Wentorf für DKK 3.000,00 (€ 402,44) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Paintings, furniture and varia bei Bruun Rasmussen erzielt und lag noch unterhalb des vom Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreises von DKK 6.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Carl Wentorf mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of Mrs H. Wichfeld (1849-1907), quarter-length, in a brown suit and green hat, a woodland beyond; and Portrait of E. Wichfeld Esq., quarter-length, in a white lace dress with a yellow rose beobachtet, die im Oktober 2007 für GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.436,07) versteigert wurde.
