Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2012 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art Including Orientalist Art, which included the work The favourite by Gustavo Simoni. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 2,024.68) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gustavo Simoni achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Gate Of The Sidi Boumediene Mosque, Tlemcen in April 2020 with an auction result of GBP 118,750.00 (€ 136,603.15).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2012 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art Including Orientalist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The favourite von Gustavo Simoni zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 1.625,00 (€ 2.024,68) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gustavo Simoni erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Gate Of The Sidi Boumediene Mosque, Tlemcen im April 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 118.750,00 (€ 136.603,15).
