Joseph-Marie Vien (Montpellier 1716-1809 Paris)
Priam leaving to beg Achilles for Hector's body
oil on unlined canvas
20¾ x 26¾in. (52.7 x 67.8cm.)

Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Joseph-Marie Vien could be acquired at Christies in New York in May 2000 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master Paintings from the Lagerfeld Collection auction, the work Priam leaving to beg Achilles for Hector's body changed hands for USD 11,750.00 (€ 12,596.48) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joseph-Marie Vien achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Women In Classical Dress Attending A Young Bride in February 2018 with an auction result of USD 855,000.00 (€ 700,188.35).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Joseph-Marie Vien konnte im Mai 2000 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master Paintings from the Lagerfeld Collection wechselte die Arbeit Priam leaving to beg Achilles for Hector's body für USD 11.750,00 (€ 12.596,48) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joseph-Marie Vien erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Women In Classical Dress Attending A Young Bride im Februar 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 855.000,00 (€ 700.188,35).
