A top price for Henri Charles Antoine Baron - as previously expected
In May 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction European Paintings including German, Austrian & Central European Paintings and The Orientalist Sale, which included the work French Odalisque by Henri Charles Antoine Baron. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 5,250.00 (€ 6,678.23) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, French Odalisque is the most expensive artwork by Henri Charles Antoine Baron that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Mai 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion European Paintings including German, Austrian & Central European Paintings and The Orientalist Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit French Odalisque von Henri Charles Antoine Baron zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 5.250,00 (€ 6.678,23) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist French Odalisque das teuerste Kunstwerk von Henri Charles Antoine Baron, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
