Auction result well in line with expectations

In January this year Christies in New York held the auction Old Master & British Drawings, which included the work The Marriage of Jason and Medea (recto); Composition study of an antique scene (verso) by Jacques-Louis David. The price achieved of USD 9,450.00 (€ 8,703.26) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jacques-Louis David achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Ramel De Nogaret in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 7,209,000.00 (€ 4,630,652.62).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Januar diesen Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Old Master & British Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Marriage of Jason and Medea (recto); Composition study of an antique scene (verso) von Jacques-Louis David zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 9.450,00 (€ 8.703,26) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jacques-Louis David erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Ramel De Nogaret im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.209.000,00 (€ 4.630.652,62).
