This artwork by François Rivoire achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in May 2001. In the BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS auction, the work Still life with carnations, blossom and forget-me-nots in a ceramic jug sold for GBP 1,762.50 (€ 2,954.87) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 700.00. Admittedly, works by François Rivoire have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A vase of roses; and A basket of flowers in March 2001 with an auction result of GBP 11,750.00 (€ 18,959.80).

Dieses Kunstwerk von François Rivoire erzielte im Mai 2001 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS wurde die Arbeit Still life with carnations, blossom and forget-me-nots in a ceramic jug für GBP 1.762,50 (€ 2.954,87) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 700,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von François Rivoire auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A vase of roses; and A basket of flowers im März 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.750,00 (€ 18.959,80).
