A top price for Charles Hunt Sr. - as previously expected

The work British bluebeard Marries And Bluebeard Foiled by Charles Hunt Sr. was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2017. The price achieved of USD 137,500.00 (€ 122,374.51) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, British bluebeard Marries And Bluebeard Foiled is the most expensive artwork by Charles Hunt Sr. that we have observed at auctions so far.

Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 137.500,00 (€ 122.374,51) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 120.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist British bluebeard Marries And Bluebeard Foiled das teuerste Kunstwerk von Charles Hunt Sr., das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
