Auction result misses estimated price range
In January 2015 a collector was able to acquire the work Three Allegorical Studies Of Abundance, Agriculture And Science, Mounted On A Design For The Ceiling Of The Salle Du Conseil D'Etat, In The Tuileries Palace by François Gérard for USD 23,750.00 (€ 21,036.32). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master Drawings at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by François Gérard achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Baronportrait Of Joachim Napoléon Murat, King Of Naples And Of The Two Sicilies in June 2017 with an auction result of EUR 739,500.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Januar 2015 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Three Allegorical Studies Of Abundance, Agriculture And Science, Mounted On A Design For The Ceiling Of The Salle Du Conseil D'Etat, In The Tuileries Palace von François Gérard für USD 23.750,00 (€ 21.036,32) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master Drawings bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von François Gérard erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Baronportrait Of Joachim Napoléon Murat, King Of Naples And Of The Two Sicilies im Juni 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 739.500,00.
