Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2020 a collector was able to acquire the work Promenade D’Automne by Marie-François Firmin-Girard for USD 25,200.00 (€ 21,091.40). This price was achieved in the auction True Connoisseurship: The Collection of Ezra & Cecile Zilkha at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 30,000.00 – 40,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Marie-François Firmin-Girard achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work French Le Quai Aux Fleurs in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 3,021,000.00 (€ 2,214,809.38).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2020 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Promenade D’Automne von Marie-François Firmin-Girard für USD 25.200,00 (€ 21.091,40) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion True Connoisseurship: The Collection of Ezra & Cecile Zilkha bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 30.000,00 – 40.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Marie-François Firmin-Girard erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit French Le Quai Aux Fleurs im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.021.000,00 (€ 2.214.809,38).
