A top price for Gustav Johan Fenger - as previously expected
In September 2013 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art Including Orientalist Art, which included the work Leda And The Swan by Gustav Johan Fenger. The auction ended at the price of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,390.69), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Leda And The Swan is the most expensive artwork by Gustav Johan Fenger that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im September 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art Including Orientalist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Leda And The Swan von Gustav Johan Fenger zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.390,69) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Leda And The Swan das teuerste Kunstwerk von Gustav Johan Fenger, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
