A top price for Jean-Pierre Péquignot
When the work Morning and Evening: A classical landscape with shepherds, an acquaduct beyond; and A classical landscape with shepherds and nymphs by a lake, a hilltop castle beyond by Jean-Pierre Péquignot was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2004, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 30,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 117,250.00 (€ 165,941.05). This high result makes Morning and Evening: A classical landscape with shepherds, an acquaduct beyond; and A classical landscape with shepherds and nymphs by a lake, a hilltop castle beyond the most expensive artwork by Jean-Pierre Péquignot that we have observed at auctions so far.

Als die Arbeit Morning and Evening: A classical landscape with shepherds, an acquaduct beyond; and A classical landscape with shepherds and nymphs by a lake, a hilltop castle beyond von Jean-Pierre Péquignot im Dezember 2004 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 30.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 117.250,00 (€ 165.941,05) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Morning and Evening: A classical landscape with shepherds, an acquaduct beyond; and A classical landscape with shepherds and nymphs by a lake, a hilltop castle beyond zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Jean-Pierre Péquignot, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
