Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2017 Sothebys in Paris held the auction Photographies, which included the work Place De La Concorde, Paris, 1859 by Gustave Le Gray. It changed hands for a price of EUR 68,750.00 achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of EUR 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gustave Le Gray achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bateaux quittant le port du Havre (navires de la flotte de Napoleon III), 1856-1857 in February 2016 with an auction result of USD 965,000.00 (€ 887,927.86).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2017 führte Sothebys in Paris die Auktion Photographies durch, in der auch die Arbeit Place De La Concorde, Paris, 1859 von Gustave Le Gray zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von EUR 68.750,00 den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 50.000,00 – 70.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gustave Le Gray erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bateaux quittant le port du Havre (navires de la flotte de Napoleon III), 1856-1857 im Februar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 965.000,00 (€ 887.927,86).
