Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2007 Christies in London held the auction Old Master and British Pictures, which included the work Peaches And Plums In White Porcelain Bowls, With A Sheaf Of Corn On A Wooden Table by Jean Valette-Falgores. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 12,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 13,700.00 (€ 18,615.98). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jean Valette-Falgores achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A still life with artichokes in a blue and white vase, a salt cellar, a knife and two glass cruets in January this year with an auction result of USD 277,200.00 (€ 255,295.63).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Dezember 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master and British Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Peaches And Plums In White Porcelain Bowls, With A Sheaf Of Corn On A Wooden Table von Jean Valette-Falgores zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 12.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 13.700,00 (€ 18.615,98) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jean Valette-Falgores erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A still life with artichokes in a blue and white vase, a salt cellar, a knife and two glass cruets im Januar diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 277.200,00 (€ 255.295,63).
