In October 2004 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART, which included the work A horseman and his dog on a country lane by Louis-Pierre Verwée. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 20,315.00 69% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Louis-Pierre Verwée; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot A herdsman with cattle fording a stream in a valley; and A shepherd with a flock of sheep resting in a valley sold at auction in October 2002 with the realized price of EUR 35,850.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 69 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2004 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit A horseman and his dog on a country lane von Louis-Pierre Verwée zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 20.315,00 und damit 69% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Louis-Pierre Verwée; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit A herdsman with cattle fording a stream in a valley; and A shepherd with a flock of sheep resting in a valley im Oktober 2002 mit dem Hammerpreis von EUR 35.850,00.
