Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Portrait Of Archduchess Marie Clementine Of Austria, Later Crown Princess Of Naples (1777-1801) by Heinrich Friedrich Füger was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 18,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 68,750.00 (€ 76,593.60). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Heinrich Friedrich Füger - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Jupiter, which sold at auction in December 2020 for GBP 163,800.00 (€ 182,979.20).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of Archduchess Marie Clementine Of Austria, Later Crown Princess Of Naples (1777-1801) von Heinrich Friedrich Füger im Dezember 2018 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 18.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 68.750,00 (€ 76.593,60) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Heinrich Friedrich Füger mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Jupiter beobachtet, die im Dezember 2020 für GBP 163.800,00 (€ 182.979,20) versteigert wurde.
