Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Le Nouveau Commis by Jehan-Georges Vibert was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 30,000.00 – 40,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 27,500.00 (€ 23,113.13). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jehan-Georges Vibert achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work French Gulliver And The Lilliputians in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 1,497,000.00 (€ 961,587.87).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Le Nouveau Commis von Jehan-Georges Vibert im November 2017 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 27.500,00 (€ 23.113,13) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jehan-Georges Vibert erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit French Gulliver And The Lilliputians im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.497.000,00 (€ 961.587,87).
