In November 2013 Sothebys in New York held the auction 19th Century European Art, which included the work French la Nature Se Dévoilant Devant La Science by Louis-Ernest Barrias. The »bidding war« ended at USD 131,000.00 (€ 96,281.05), 64% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Louis-Ernest Barrias; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot La jeune fille de Bou-Saada sold at auction in May 2000 with the realized price of USD 121,500.00 (€ 130,253.00).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 64 % übertroffen

Im November 2013 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion 19th Century European Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit French la Nature Se Dévoilant Devant La Science von Louis-Ernest Barrias zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 131.000,00 (€ 96.281,05) und damit 64% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Louis-Ernest Barrias; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit La jeune fille de Bou-Saada im Mai 2000 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 121.500,00 (€ 130.253,00).
