Despite a disappointment, a good price for Jean Lepautre
When the work Vases à l'antique: Six Plates by Jean Lepautre was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2003, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,314.50 (€ 1,219.50). Despite this disappointing result, Vases à l'antique: Six Plates is the most expensive artwork by Jean Lepautre that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Jean Lepautre
Als die Arbeit Vases à l'antique: Six Plates von Jean Lepautre im Februar 2003 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.314,50 (€ 1.219,50) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Vases à l'antique: Six Plates das teuerste Kunstwerk von Jean Lepautre, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
