Auction result well in line with expectations
The work La Caleta, Málaga (La Caleta Beach, Málaga) by Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida was sold in the 19th Century European Paintings auction at Sothebys in London in July 2019. The price achieved of GBP 399,000.00 (€ 438,075.47) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 350,000.00 – 450,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Spanish pescadores Valencianos (Valencian Fishermen) in November 2012 with an auction result of GBP 3,737,250.00 (€ 4,603,912.82).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit La Caleta, Málaga (La Caleta Beach, Málaga) von Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida wurde im Juli 2019 in der Auktion 19th Century European Paintings bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 399.000,00 (€ 438.075,47) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 350.000,00 – 450.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Spanish pescadores Valencianos (Valencian Fishermen) im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.737.250,00 (€ 4.603.912,82).
