Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The poetic suitor by Jean Carolus was sold in the 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART auction at Christies in London in November 2001. The price achieved of GBP 11,750.00 (€ 18,697.95) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean Carolus - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Negotiations, which sold at auction in May 2000 for USD 56,400.00 (€ 60,463.12).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The poetic suitor von Jean Carolus wurde im November 2001 in der Auktion 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 11.750,00 (€ 18.697,95) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Jean Carolus mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Negotiations beobachtet, die im Mai 2000 für USD 56.400,00 (€ 60.463,12) versteigert wurde.
