A top price for Louis Tocqué - as previously expected
In January 2012 Sothebys in New York held the auction Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture, which included the work Portrait Of Louis Philippe Joseph, Duc D'Orleans And Duc De Chartres by Louis Tocqué. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 218,500.00 (€ 167,394.47) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait Of Louis Philippe Joseph, Duc D'Orleans And Duc De Chartres is the most expensive artwork by Louis Tocqué that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Januar 2012 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Louis Philippe Joseph, Duc D'Orleans And Duc De Chartres von Louis Tocqué zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 218.500,00 (€ 167.394,47) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Portrait Of Louis Philippe Joseph, Duc D'Orleans And Duc De Chartres das teuerste Kunstwerk von Louis Tocqué, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
