Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction 19th Century and British Impressionist Art, which included the work La Jeunesse by Émile Munier. The price achieved of GBP 8,925.00 (€ 10,384.36) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Émile Munier achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le Sauvetage (The Rescue) in May 2001 with an auction result of USD 336,000.00 (€ 397,397.99).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion 19th Century and British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit La Jeunesse von Émile Munier zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 8.925,00 (€ 10.384,36) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Émile Munier erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le Sauvetage (The Rescue) im Mai 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 336.000,00 (€ 397.397,99).
