Sold at the lower estimate price

In December 2019 Christies in London held the auction Old Master Drawings: Online, which included the work An African striped weasel (Poecilogale albinucha) by Jean-Baptiste Adanson. The result of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,363.77) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jean-Baptiste Adanson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Houbara Bustard Standing In A Landscape, Fanning Its Tail Feathers in January 2017 with an auction result of USD 40,000.00 (€ 37,057.62).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Im Dezember 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master Drawings: Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit An African striped weasel (Poecilogale albinucha) von Jean-Baptiste Adanson zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.363,77) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jean-Baptiste Adanson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Houbara Bustard Standing In A Landscape, Fanning Its Tail Feathers im Januar 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 40.000,00 (€ 37.057,62).
