Auction result misses estimated price range
In June last year a collector was able to acquire the work Portrait Of Joachim Murat (1767-1815), His Wife, Caroline Bonaparte (1782-1839) And Their Family, With A View Of Naples Beyond by Guillaume Descamps for USD 5,670.00 (€ 5,415.99). This price was achieved in the auction Old Masters: No Reserves at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Guillaume Descamps - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Les jeunes amoureux lisant une lettre devant Naples, which sold at auction in October 2002 for EUR 21,150.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juni letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Portrait Of Joachim Murat (1767-1815), His Wife, Caroline Bonaparte (1782-1839) And Their Family, With A View Of Naples Beyond von Guillaume Descamps für USD 5.670,00 (€ 5.415,99) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Masters: No Reserves bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Guillaume Descamps mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Les jeunes amoureux lisant une lettre devant Naples beobachtet, die im Oktober 2002 für EUR 21.150,00 versteigert wurde.
