Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2003 Christies in London held the auction Important Gold Boxes,Objects of Vertu & Portrait Miniatures, which included the work Mr Ladal-Bockayry, in coat, waistcoat and frilled cravat, foliate background by Firmin Massot. It changed hands for a price of GBP 776.75 (€ 1,100.16) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Firmin Massot achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Elizabeth Broadhead, later Lady Dashwood (1801-1889), small full-length, in a white dress, seated in a landscape, holding a sun hat in December 2008 with an auction result of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 26,257.27).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2003 führte Christies in London die Auktion Important Gold Boxes,Objects of Vertu & Portrait Miniatures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Mr Ladal-Bockayry, in coat, waistcoat and frilled cravat, foliate background von Firmin Massot zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 776,75 (€ 1.100,16) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Firmin Massot erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Elizabeth Broadhead, later Lady Dashwood (1801-1889), small full-length, in a white dress, seated in a landscape, holding a sun hat im Dezember 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 26.257,27).
