Artwork auctioned at seven times the upper estimate price
When the work Scènes champêtres by Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 5,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at GBP 35,280.00 (€ 39,410.90). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Louis XV with the Royal Hounds in front of the Pavillion of Croix-Fontaine belonging to the Fermier Générale Bouret, which sold at auction in October 2021 for USD 125,000.00 (€ 108,206.37).
Kunstwerk zum Siebenfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Scènes champêtres von Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe im Dezember 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 5.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 35.280,00 (€ 39.410,90) mehr als siebenmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Louis XV with the Royal Hounds in front of the Pavillion of Croix-Fontaine belonging to the Fermier Générale Bouret beobachtet, die im Oktober 2021 für USD 125.000,00 (€ 108.206,37) versteigert wurde.
