Auction result well in line with expectations

The work The women artists offering their jewelry on the Altar of the Nation, 7 September 1789 by Guillaume Guillon-Lethière was sold in the Master Works on Paper from Five Centuries auction at Sothebys in New York in January last year. The price achieved of USD 30,240.00 (€ 26,971.10) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Guillaume Guillon-Lethière achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Brutus Condemning His Sons in April 2018 with an auction result of USD 852,500.00 (€ 706,062.61).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit The women artists offering their jewelry on the Altar of the Nation, 7 September 1789 von Guillaume Guillon-Lethière wurde im Januar letzten Jahres in der Auktion Master Works on Paper from Five Centuries bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 30.240,00 (€ 26.971,10) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Guillaume Guillon-Lethière erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Brutus Condemning His Sons im April 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 852.500,00 (€ 706.062,61).
