Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Édouard Baldus could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in October 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Photographs auction, the work 'Theatre Romain, Arles' changed hands for USD 13,750.00 (€ 10,842.14) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Édouard Baldus - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portal, Amiens Cathedral, which sold at auction in April 2008 for USD 61,000.00 (€ 39,182.94).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Édouard Baldus konnte im Oktober 2008 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Photographs wechselte die Arbeit 'Theatre Romain, Arles' für USD 13.750,00 (€ 10.842,14) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Édouard Baldus mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portal, Amiens Cathedral beobachtet, die im April 2008 für USD 61.000,00 (€ 39.182,94) versteigert wurde.
