A top price for Johann Gottfried Schadow - as previously expected
In July 2012 Christies in London held the auction Old Master & Early British Drawings and Watercolours, which included the work Portrait of a lady, bust-length, turned to the right by Johann Gottfried Schadow. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 16,250.00 (€ 20,698.13) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of a lady, bust-length, turned to the right is the most expensive artwork by Johann Gottfried Schadow that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juli 2012 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master & Early British Drawings and Watercolours durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, bust-length, turned to the right von Johann Gottfried Schadow zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 16.250,00 (€ 20.698,13) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Portrait of a lady, bust-length, turned to the right das teuerste Kunstwerk von Johann Gottfried Schadow, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
