Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of James W. DePeyster by Charles Willson Peale was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2005. The price achieved of USD 84,000.00 (€ 68,021.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 70,000.00 – 100,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Willson Peale achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work George Washington at Princeton in January 2006 with an auction result of USD 21,296,000.00 (€ 17,516,038.82).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of James W. DePeyster von Charles Willson Peale kam im Mai 2005 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 84.000,00 (€ 68.021,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 70.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Willson Peale erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit George Washington at Princeton im Januar 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 21.296.000,00 (€ 17.516.038,82).
