Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Portrait of a Soldier framed 40.0 x 34.0 x 5.0 cm (15 3/4 x 13 3/8 x 2 in). by Ernest Meissonier was auctioned at Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts in November this year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,536.00 (€ 1,408.14). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ernest Meissonier achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work French les Deux Amis in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 442,000.00 (€ 418,481.35).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Portrait of a Soldier framed 40.0 x 34.0 x 5.0 cm (15 3/4 x 13 3/8 x 2 in). von Ernest Meissonier im November diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.536,00 (€ 1.408,14) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ernest Meissonier erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit French les Deux Amis im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 442.000,00 (€ 418.481,35).
