A top price for Charles Edouard Boutibonne - as previously expected
In July 2008 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art including Orientalist and Spanish Art, which included the work Before the bath by Charles Edouard Boutibonne. It changed hands for a price of GBP 43,250.00 (€ 54,949.61) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 35,000.00 – 45,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Before the bath is the most expensive artwork by Charles Edouard Boutibonne that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juli 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art including Orientalist and Spanish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Before the bath von Charles Edouard Boutibonne zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 43.250,00 (€ 54.949,61) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 35.000,00 – 45.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Before the bath das teuerste Kunstwerk von Charles Edouard Boutibonne, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
