Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Le Cake by George Morren was auctioned at Sothebys in Paris in March last year. The price achieved of EUR 5,040.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Morren achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work À L'Harmonie (Jardin Public) in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 915,000.00 (€ 784,061.70).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Le Cake von George Morren kam im März letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in Paris zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 5.040,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Morren erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit À L'Harmonie (Jardin Public) im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 915.000,00 (€ 784.061,70).
