Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Elizabeth Jane Gardner Bouguereau could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in November 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 19th Century European Art auction, the work American after The Engagement changed hands for USD 50,000.00 (€ 38,431.98) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Elizabeth Jane Gardner Bouguereau achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work American La Captive in February 2019 with an auction result of USD 591,000.00 (€ 519,377.80).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Elizabeth Jane Gardner Bouguereau konnte im November 2012 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion 19th Century European Art wechselte die Arbeit American after The Engagement für USD 50.000,00 (€ 38.431,98) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Elizabeth Jane Gardner Bouguereau erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit American La Captive im Februar 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 591.000,00 (€ 519.377,80).
