Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Tribute by Gustave Boulanger was sold in the The Orientalist Sale auction at Sothebys in London in March last year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 100,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 107,100.00 (€ 126,979.10). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gustave Boulanger - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work La Cour du Palais de Dar Khdaouedj El Amia, Alger, which sold at auction in October 2005 for USD 576,000.00 (€ 480,200.08).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Tribute von Gustave Boulanger wurde im März letzten Jahres in der Auktion The Orientalist Sale bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 100.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 107.100,00 (€ 126.979,10) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Gustave Boulanger mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit La Cour du Palais de Dar Khdaouedj El Amia, Alger beobachtet, die im Oktober 2005 für USD 576.000,00 (€ 480.200,08) versteigert wurde.
