A top price for Friedrich Ortlieb - as previously expected
The work New Year's Eve at Grandfather's by Friedrich Ortlieb was sold in the 19th Century European Art auction at Christies in New York in October 2003. The price achieved of USD 14,340.00 (€ 12,352.49) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 16,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, New Year's Eve at Grandfather's is the most expensive artwork by Friedrich Ortlieb that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit New Year's Eve at Grandfather's von Friedrich Ortlieb wurde im Oktober 2003 in der Auktion 19th Century European Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 14.340,00 (€ 12.352,49) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 12.000,00 – 16.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist New Year's Eve at Grandfather's das teuerste Kunstwerk von Friedrich Ortlieb, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
