Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Design for a wine cooler with a frieze of palm leaves by Jean-Guillaume Moitte was sold in the West ~ East - The Niall Hobhouse Collection auction at Christies in London in May 2008. The price achieved of GBP 1,750.00 (€ 2,226.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jean-Guillaume Moitte achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Cornelie, Mere Des Gracques in April 2008 with an auction result of EUR 37,176.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Design for a wine cooler with a frieze of palm leaves von Jean-Guillaume Moitte wurde im Mai 2008 in der Auktion West ~ East - The Niall Hobhouse Collection bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.750,00 (€ 2.226,08) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jean-Guillaume Moitte erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Cornelie, Mere Des Gracques im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 37.176,00.
