Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Master Paintings and Drawings, which included the work A rural laborer with a calf slung over his shoulder by Eugène Modeste Edmond Le Poitevin. Here, the upper estimate of USD 1,200.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 1,260.00 (€ 1,090.72). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eugène Modeste Edmond Le Poitevin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work BATHING IN ETRETAT in December 2020 with an auction result of EUR 226,800.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Master Paintings and Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A rural laborer with a calf slung over his shoulder von Eugène Modeste Edmond Le Poitevin zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 1.200,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 1.260,00 (€ 1.090,72) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Eugène Modeste Edmond Le Poitevin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit BATHING IN ETRETAT im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 226.800,00.
