Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Resurrection by Gustav Adolf Mossa was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2019. The price achieved of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 13,724.17) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gustav Adolf Mossa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Le Baiser D'Hélène, which sold at auction in March 2014 for USD 60,000.00 (€ 43,550.85).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Resurrection von Gustav Adolf Mossa kam im Juli 2019 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 13.724,17) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Gustav Adolf Mossa mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Le Baiser D'Hélène beobachtet, die im März 2014 für USD 60.000,00 (€ 43.550,85) versteigert wurde.
