A top price for Franz Horst - as previously expected
The work Reading in the shade, a snow capped mountain beyond by Franz Horst was sold in the British, Continental and Russian Pictures auction at Christies in London in December 2006. The price achieved of GBP 360.00 (€ 534.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Reading in the shade, a snow capped mountain beyond is the most expensive artwork by Franz Horst that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Reading in the shade, a snow capped mountain beyond von Franz Horst wurde im Dezember 2006 in der Auktion British, Continental and Russian Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 360,00 (€ 534,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Reading in the shade, a snow capped mountain beyond das teuerste Kunstwerk von Franz Horst, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
