Auction result misses estimated price range
In January 2014 a collector was able to acquire the work Telemachus On The Island Of The Goddess Calypso by Hugues Taraval for USD 31,250.00 (€ 23,148.15). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master Paintings at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Hugues Taraval have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Feast of Tantalus; and Phineus interrupting the wedding banquet of Perseus and Andromeda in May 2000 with an auction result of USD 94,000.00 (€ 100,771.87).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Januar 2014 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Telemachus On The Island Of The Goddess Calypso von Hugues Taraval für USD 31.250,00 (€ 23.148,15) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master Paintings bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Hugues Taraval auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Feast of Tantalus; and Phineus interrupting the wedding banquet of Perseus and Andromeda im Mai 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 94.000,00 (€ 100.771,87).
