Auction result well in line with expectations
The work General William F. Draper by Daniel Chester French was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 32,500.00 (€ 28,679.84) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Daniel Chester French have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Concord Minute Man Of 1775 in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 212,500.00 (€ 190,600.05).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit General William F. Draper von Daniel Chester French kam im Oktober 2018 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 32.500,00 (€ 28.679,84) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Daniel Chester French auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Concord Minute Man Of 1775 im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 212.500,00 (€ 190.600,05).
