Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2008 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art including Orientalist and Spanish Art, which included the work A visitor in the Harem by Julius Berger. The price achieved of GBP 22,500.00 (€ 28,586.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 18,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Julius Berger - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Entertaining The Pasha, which sold at auction in June 2005 for GBP 42,000.00 (€ 62,246.65).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art including Orientalist and Spanish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit A visitor in the Harem von Julius Berger zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 22.500,00 (€ 28.586,50) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 18.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Julius Berger mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Entertaining The Pasha beobachtet, die im Juni 2005 für GBP 42.000,00 (€ 62.246,65) versteigert wurde.
