Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Salerno, Italy, 1933 by Henri Cartier-Bresson was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2016. The price achieved of USD 5,000.00 (€ 4,600.66) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henri Cartier-Bresson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work On the Banks of the Marne, France in April 2017 with an auction result of USD 212,500.00 (€ 195,043.60).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Salerno, Italy, 1933 von Henri Cartier-Bresson kam im Februar 2016 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 5.000,00 (€ 4.600,66) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henri Cartier-Bresson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit On the Banks of the Marne, France im April 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 212.500,00 (€ 195.043,60).
