A top price for Eugen von Guérard - as previously expected
In November 2002 Christies in Melbourne held the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS, which included the work Shipwreck Off Coast by Eugen von Guérard. The price achieved of AUD 94,000.00 (€ 53,009.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Shipwreck Off Coast is the most expensive artwork by Eugen von Guérard that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im November 2002 führte Christies in Melbourne die Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Shipwreck Off Coast von Eugen von Guérard zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 94.000,00 (€ 53.009,87) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Shipwreck Off Coast das teuerste Kunstwerk von Eugen von Guérard, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
