Auction result well in line with expectations

In July 2009 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters & 19th Century ArtDay Sale, which included the work Leda and the Swan by Hans Makart. It changed hands for a price of GBP 18,750.00 (€ 21,275.63) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hans Makart achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Frauenporträt in ägpytischem Kostüm in October 2000 with an auction result of GBP 174,250.00 (€ 297,843.07).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Juli 2009 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters & 19th Century ArtDay Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Leda and the Swan von Hans Makart zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 18.750,00 (€ 21.275,63) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hans Makart erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Frauenporträt in ägpytischem Kostüm im Oktober 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 174.250,00 (€ 297.843,07).
