Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Cupid and Psyche by Mathurin Moreau was sold in the European Art auction at Christies in New York in February this year. It changed hands for a price of USD 23,940.00 (€ 22,580.65) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mathurin Moreau - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work French printemps, which sold at auction in November 2012 for USD 68,500.00 (€ 52,651.81).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Cupid and Psyche von Mathurin Moreau wurde im Februar diesen Jahres in der Auktion European Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 23.940,00 (€ 22.580,65) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Mathurin Moreau mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit French printemps beobachtet, die im November 2012 für USD 68.500,00 (€ 52.651,81) versteigert wurde.
