Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A crested porcupine (Hystrix cristata) by Franz Anton von Scheidel was sold in the Old Master Drawings: Online auction at Christies in London in December 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 1,920.56) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Franz Anton von Scheidel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Six études de cornes in December 2019 with an auction result of EUR 35,000.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit A crested porcupine (Hystrix cristata) von Franz Anton von Scheidel wurde im Dezember 2019 in der Auktion Old Master Drawings: Online bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 1.625,00 (€ 1.920,56) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Franz Anton von Scheidel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Six études de cornes im Dezember 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 35.000,00.
