Auction result well in line with expectations

In March this year Bonhams held the auction Prints & Multiples, which included the work The Veil of Saint Veronica (The Holy Face) by Claude Mellan. The price achieved of USD 4,080.00 (€ 3,752.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Claude Mellan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait D'Henri-Louis Habert De Montmor (1600-1679), which sold at auction in March 2014 for EUR 11,875.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im März diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Veil of Saint Veronica (The Holy Face) von Claude Mellan zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 4.080,00 (€ 3.752,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Claude Mellan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait D'Henri-Louis Habert De Montmor (1600-1679) beobachtet, die im März 2014 für EUR 11.875,00 versteigert wurde.
