Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A patinated bronze figure of a peasant girl by Mathurin Moreau was auctioned at Bonhams in London in October last year. The price achieved of GBP 382.50 (€ 445.61) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mathurin Moreau achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work French printemps in November 2012 with an auction result of USD 68,500.00 (€ 52,651.81).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A patinated bronze figure of a peasant girl von Mathurin Moreau kam im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 382,50 (€ 445,61) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mathurin Moreau erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit French printemps im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 68.500,00 (€ 52.651,81).
