A top price for Jean Duvet
In July 2011 Christies in London held the auction Old Master Prints, which included the work Saints Sebastian, Anthony, and Roch (B. 10; Bersier 48; Eisler 70) by Jean Duvet. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 46,850.00 (€ 53,767.38), 34% above the upper estimate. With this result, Saints Sebastian, Anthony, and Roch (B. 10; Bersier 48; Eisler 70) is even the most expensive work of art by Jean Duvet that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Jean Duvet
Im Juli 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master Prints durch, in der auch die Arbeit Saints Sebastian, Anthony, and Roch (B. 10; Bersier 48; Eisler 70) von Jean Duvet zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 46.850,00 (€ 53.767,38) und damit 34% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Mit diesem Ergebnis ist Saints Sebastian, Anthony, and Roch (B. 10; Bersier 48; Eisler 70) sogar das teuerste Kunstwerk von Jean Duvet, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
