Jules Moigniez (French, 1835-1894)
Pair of partridges

bronze, with golden-brown patina
height of the first: 12¼ in. (31 cm.); height of the second: 12 5/8 in. (32 cm.) (2)

Upper estimate price exceeded by 43 %.

In December 2008 Christies in New York held the auction Sporting and Wildlife Art, which included the work Pair of partridges by Jules Moigniez. The »bidding war« ended at USD 5,000.00 (€ 3,592.21), 43% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Jules Moigniez have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Little Agnès: a tethered thoroughbred with greyhound and tack in December 2005 with an auction result of USD 18,000.00 (€ 15,200.14).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 43 % übertroffen

Im Dezember 2008 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Sporting and Wildlife Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Pair of partridges von Jules Moigniez zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 5.000,00 (€ 3.592,21) und damit 43% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Jules Moigniez auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Little Agnès: a tethered thoroughbred with greyhound and tack im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 18.000,00 (€ 15.200,14).
