Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Belgian Chickens By A Hay Bail.; Chickens In A Barn In Winter by Eugène Rémy Maes was auctioned at Sothebys in London in October 2008, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 4,750.00 (€ 6,054.55). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Eugène Rémy Maes - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work In the Farm Yard, which sold at auction in June 2003 for GBP 10,755.00 (€ 15,455.52).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Belgian Chickens By A Hay Bail.; Chickens In A Barn In Winter von Eugène Rémy Maes im Oktober 2008 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 4.750,00 (€ 6.054,55) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Eugène Rémy Maes mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit In the Farm Yard beobachtet, die im Juni 2003 für GBP 10.755,00 (€ 15.455,52) versteigert wurde.
