Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2007 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master Paintings Evening, which included the work A Female Turkish Bath Or Hammam by Jean-Jacques-François Le Barbier. The price achieved of GBP 168,000.00 (€ 249,518.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 150,000.00 – 200,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean-Jacques-François Le Barbier - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work La Magnanimite de Lycurgue (The Magnanimity of Lycurgus), which sold at auction in October 2021 for USD 1,050,000.00 (€ 908,933.52).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2007 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings Evening durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Female Turkish Bath Or Hammam von Jean-Jacques-François Le Barbier zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 168.000,00 (€ 249.518,78) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 150.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Jean-Jacques-François Le Barbier mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit La Magnanimite de Lycurgue (The Magnanimity of Lycurgus) beobachtet, die im Oktober 2021 für USD 1.050.000,00 (€ 908.933,52) versteigert wurde.
