This artwork by Charles-Henri-Joseph Cordier achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in April 2017. In the The Orientalist Sale auction, the work French cheik Arabe Du Caire (Arab Sheik Of Cairo) sold for GBP 87,500.00 (€ 103,907.76) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles-Henri-Joseph Cordier - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Torchères femme indienne portant un vase sur épaul gauche; femme indienne portant un vase sur la tête, which sold at auction in October 2008 for USD 362,500.00 (€ 285,838.20).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles-Henri-Joseph Cordier erzielte im April 2017 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Orientalist Sale wurde die Arbeit French cheik Arabe Du Caire (Arab Sheik Of Cairo) für GBP 87.500,00 (€ 103.907,76) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 50.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Charles-Henri-Joseph Cordier mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Torchères femme indienne portant un vase sur épaul gauche; femme indienne portant un vase sur la tête beobachtet, die im Oktober 2008 für USD 362.500,00 (€ 285.838,20) versteigert wurde.
