A top price for Dora Hitz - as previously expected
In June 2010 Sothebys in London held the auction 19th Century European Paintings Including German, Austrian and Central European Paintings, The Orientalist Sale, Spanish Painting and the Scandinavian Sale, which included the work German das Sonnenkind (The Sun Child) by Dora Hitz. The price achieved of GBP 31,250.00 (€ 38,002.91) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, German das Sonnenkind (The Sun Child) is the most expensive artwork by Dora Hitz that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juni 2010 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion 19th Century European Paintings Including German, Austrian and Central European Paintings, The Orientalist Sale, Spanish Painting and the Scandinavian Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit German das Sonnenkind (The Sun Child) von Dora Hitz zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 31.250,00 (€ 38.002,91) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist German das Sonnenkind (The Sun Child) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Dora Hitz, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
