Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Monumental Gateway of Five Bays In The Corinthian Order, Decorated With Reliefs of Military Scenes And Statues of Warriors And Surmounted By Statuary Reminiscent of The Horses of San Marco by Jacques Androuet du Cerceau I was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2006. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 31,200.00 (€ 45,673.14) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Jacques Androuet du Cerceau I have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in July 2006 the work A Façade of Five Bays In The Corinthian Order, The Central Bay With A Doorway Surmounted By The French Royal Arms, The Surmounting Balustrade With A Central Arch With A Relief of A Mounted Falconer And Two Female Figures Supporting A Fleur-De-Lys was auctioned for GBP 38,400.00 (€ 56,213.10).
