Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Triumph Of Galatea by Eustache Le Sueur was sold in the Important Old Master Paintings and European Works of Art Including Property of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery auction at Sothebys in New York in June 2007. Here, the upper estimate of USD 90,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 99,000.00 (€ 73,224.85). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eustache Le Sueur achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An Allegory Of Poetry in January 2016 with an auction result of USD 970,000.00 (€ 895,494.83).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 90.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 99.000,00 (€ 73.224,85) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Eustache Le Sueur erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An Allegory Of Poetry im Januar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 970.000,00 (€ 895.494,83).
