Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work French The Hunt: Casting Out And Finding The Scent (A Pair) by Eugène Petit was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2007, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 13,750.00 (€ 9,361.38). Other works by Eugène Petit have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in April 2000 by the work The chase; and Stalking the prey at GBP 7,050.00 (€ 12,069.31).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit French The Hunt: Casting Out And Finding The Scent (A Pair) von Eugène Petit im November 2007 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 13.750,00 (€ 9.361,38) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Eugène Petit wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im April 2000 die Arbeit The chase; and Stalking the prey mit GBP 7.050,00 (€ 12.069,31).
