Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Portrait of Antoine Vollon seated at his easel by Édouard Jacques Dufeu was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 1,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 8,820.00 (€ 7,635.04). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Édouard Jacques Dufeu - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Stillleben mit Austern, Zitronen und Champagner., which sold at auction in March 2021 for CHF 19,820.00 (€ 17,921.21).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Portrait of Antoine Vollon seated at his easel von Édouard Jacques Dufeu im Oktober 2021 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 1.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 8.820,00 (€ 7.635,04) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Édouard Jacques Dufeu mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Stillleben mit Austern, Zitronen und Champagner. beobachtet, die im März 2021 für CHF 19.820,00 (€ 17.921,21) versteigert wurde.
