A top price for Diana Coomans - as previously expected
In March 2002 Christies in London held the auction NINETEENTH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART, which included the work Entertaining the pharaoh's daughter by Diana Coomans. The price achieved of GBP 8,225.00 (€ 13,445.71) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Entertaining the pharaoh's daughter is the most expensive artwork by Diana Coomans that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im März 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion NINETEENTH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit Entertaining the pharaoh's daughter von Diana Coomans zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 8.225,00 (€ 13.445,71) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Entertaining the pharaoh's daughter das teuerste Kunstwerk von Diana Coomans, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
