Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of a gentleman, traditionally identified as Samuel Kilderbee, bust-length, in a black coat and white lace collar by Gainsborough Dupont was sold in the Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in January 2009. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 12,500.00 (€ 9,762.57) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gainsborough Dupont - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Wooded Landscape With A Peasant Girl Feeding A Dog, With A Goat, Cows And Sheep On A Distant Hillside, which sold at auction in May 2018 for USD 37,500.00 (€ 32,133.68).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of a gentleman, traditionally identified as Samuel Kilderbee, bust-length, in a black coat and white lace collar von Gainsborough Dupont wurde im Januar 2009 in der Auktion Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 12.500,00 (€ 9.762,57) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Gainsborough Dupont mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Wooded Landscape With A Peasant Girl Feeding A Dog, With A Goat, Cows And Sheep On A Distant Hillside beobachtet, die im Mai 2018 für USD 37.500,00 (€ 32.133,68) versteigert wurde.
