Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Henry Moret could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in May last year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Modern Day Auction auction, the work La Maison des douaniers, fin d'après-midi changed hands for USD 56,700.00 (€ 52,837.57) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Admittedly, works by Henry Moret have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work L'Ile de Groix, Morbihan in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 200,500.00 (€ 240,665.43).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Henry Moret konnte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Modern Day Auction wechselte die Arbeit La Maison des douaniers, fin d'après-midi für USD 56.700,00 (€ 52.837,57) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Henry Moret auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit L'Ile de Groix, Morbihan im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 200.500,00 (€ 240.665,43).
