A top price for Charles Victor Thirion - as previously expected
The work French Petite Bergère by Charles Victor Thirion was sold in the 19th Century European Art auction at Sothebys in New York in February 2019. The price achieved of USD 81,250.00 (€ 71,403.46) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 70,000.00 – 100,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, French Petite Bergère is the most expensive artwork by Charles Victor Thirion that we have observed at auctions so far.
