Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A fortified castle on a coast, near Posillipo (?) ( recto ); A fragmentary drawing of a boat on a sea with mountains beyond ( verso ); and A hilly landscape with a stream and ruins to the left by Jean-Baptiste Lallemand was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2016, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwo Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jean-Baptiste Lallemand achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Fishermen and courtesans in a Mediterranean port at sunset; and Fishermen and Turkish merchants in a Mediterrenean port atsunrise in May 2005 with an auction result of USD 102,000.00 (€ 82,597.78).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A fortified castle on a coast, near Posillipo (?) ( recto ); A fragmentary drawing of a boat on a sea with mountains beyond ( verso ); and A hilly landscape with a stream and ruins to the left von Jean-Baptiste Lallemand im Dezember 2016 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.200,00 – 1.800,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.188,00 (€ 1.388,96) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jean-Baptiste Lallemand erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Fishermen and courtesans in a Mediterranean port at sunset; and Fishermen and Turkish merchants in a Mediterrenean port atsunrise im Mai 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 102.000,00 (€ 82.597,78).
