Auction result well in line with expectations

In November 2011 Sothebys in New York held the auction 19th Century European Art, which included the work Frenchtravelling Artists Sketching An Arab Encampment, Cairo by Emile Charles Lecomte-Vernet. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 35,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 37,500.00 (€ 27,874.82) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Emile Charles Lecomte-Vernet - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work French aimée, A Young Egyptian, which sold at auction in November 2010 for USD 92,500.00 (€ 70,957.35).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im November 2011 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion 19th Century European Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Frenchtravelling Artists Sketching An Arab Encampment, Cairo von Emile Charles Lecomte-Vernet zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 35.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 37.500,00 (€ 27.874,82) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Emile Charles Lecomte-Vernet mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit French aimée, A Young Egyptian beobachtet, die im November 2010 für USD 92.500,00 (€ 70.957,35) versteigert wurde.
