A top price for Fritz Grotemeyer - as previously expected
The work The Art Critics by Fritz Grotemeyer was sold in the 19th Century European Art Including Russian Pictures and a Symbolist Collection with a Richard Wagner section auction at Christies in London in June 2006. The price achieved of GBP 14,400.00 (€ 20,836.56) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Art Critics is the most expensive artwork by Fritz Grotemeyer that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit The Art Critics von Fritz Grotemeyer wurde im Juni 2006 in der Auktion 19th Century European Art Including Russian Pictures and a Symbolist Collection with a Richard Wagner section bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 14.400,00 (€ 20.836,56) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Art Critics das teuerste Kunstwerk von Fritz Grotemeyer, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
