Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Old Master Paintings, which included the work A river landscape with drovers at dusk; and Figures resting by a river (2) by Jean Baptiste Charles Claudot. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,925.00 (€ 10,645.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean Baptiste Charles Claudot - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A landscape with peasants washing laundry at a fountain; and A landscape with peasants fishing and resting by a river, which sold at auction in January 2005 for USD 50,400.00 (€ 38,623.65).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A river landscape with drovers at dusk; and Figures resting by a river (2) von Jean Baptiste Charles Claudot zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 8.925,00 (€ 10.645,65) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Jean Baptiste Charles Claudot mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A landscape with peasants washing laundry at a fountain; and A landscape with peasants fishing and resting by a river beobachtet, die im Januar 2005 für USD 50.400,00 (€ 38.623,65) versteigert wurde.
