Auction result well in line with expectations
The work La moucherolle du Paradis et petit rubis de la Caroline - Two hummingbirds by Edouard Traviès was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2000. The price achieved of GBP 1,762.50 (€ 2,793.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edouard Traviès achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Studies of birds: Livingstone's tauraco, Red-winged crested cuckoo, and Common cuckoo; Royal flycatcher and Scarlet-spectacled wattle-eye; Common redstart, Nightingale, and Black redstart; Helmeted guinea fowl, Little bustard, and Great bustard; Red-bille in January 2017 with an auction result of USD 32,500.00 (€
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit La moucherolle du Paradis et petit rubis de la Caroline - Two hummingbirds von Edouard Traviès kam im Juni 2000 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.762,50 (€ 2.793,78) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edouard Traviès erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Studies of birds: Livingstone's tauraco, Red-winged crested cuckoo, and Common cuckoo; Royal flycatcher and Scarlet-spectacled wattle-eye; Common redstart, Nightingale, and Black redstart; Helmeted guinea fowl, Little bustard, and Great bustard; Red-bille im Januar 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 32.500,00 (€ 30.109,32).
