Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A personification of Mathematics by Charles Le Brun was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2024. The price achieved of USD 6,930.00 (€ 6,056.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Le Brun achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Head of a boy in April 2007 with an auction result of USD 204,000.00 (€ 149,341.14).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A personification of Mathematics von Charles Le Brun kam im Februar 2024 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 6.930,00 (€ 6.056,63) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Le Brun erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Head of a boy im April 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 204.000,00 (€ 149.341,14).
