A top price for Kate Perugini - as previously expected
In October 2006 Christies in New York held the auction Orientalist Art, 19th Century European Art, which included the work The Flower Merchant by Kate Perugini. The price achieved of USD 84,000.00 (€ 65,763.72) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 70,000.00 – 100,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Flower Merchant is the most expensive artwork by Kate Perugini that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Oktober 2006 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Orientalist Art, 19th Century European Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Flower Merchant von Kate Perugini zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 84.000,00 (€ 65.763,72) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 70.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Flower Merchant das teuerste Kunstwerk von Kate Perugini, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
