A top price for Charles De Wailly
When the work A stage design representing the appearance of God the Father, surrounded by angels, in a celestial palace by Charles De Wailly was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2024, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 15,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 47,880.00 (€ 41,845.83). This high result makes A stage design representing the appearance of God the Father, surrounded by angels, in a celestial palace the most expensive artwork by Charles De Wailly that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Charles De Wailly
Als die Arbeit A stage design representing the appearance of God the Father, surrounded by angels, in a celestial palace von Charles De Wailly im Februar 2024 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 15.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 47.880,00 (€ 41.845,83) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht A stage design representing the appearance of God the Father, surrounded by angels, in a celestial palace zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Charles De Wailly, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
