Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A French military officer smoking; and a companion painting by Étienne Prosper Berne-Bellecour was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2007. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 4,375.00 (€ 3,076.87) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Étienne Prosper Berne-Bellecour achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work La desserte in October 2000 with an auction result of USD 127,000.00 (€ 149,658.26).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A French military officer smoking; and a companion painting von Étienne Prosper Berne-Bellecour kam im September 2007 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 4.375,00 (€ 3.076,87) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Étienne Prosper Berne-Bellecour erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit La desserte im Oktober 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 127.000,00 (€ 149.658,26).
