Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A salt cellar and an egg cup, a coffee set with a wine bottle, a melon and bread on a marble topped table by Claude-Joseph Fraichot was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2001, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 11,750.00 (€ 13,065.72). Other works by Claude-Joseph Fraichot have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in October 2001 by the work Pears and bread on plates, with bottles of wine and glasses on a stone ledge at USD 14,100.00 (€ 15,678.86).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A salt cellar and an egg cup, a coffee set with a wine bottle, a melon and bread on a marble topped table von Claude-Joseph Fraichot im Oktober 2001 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 11.750,00 (€ 13.065,72) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Claude-Joseph Fraichot wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Oktober 2001 die Arbeit Pears and bread on plates, with bottles of wine and glasses on a stone ledge mit USD 14.100,00 (€ 15.678,86).
