Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Untitled (Still Life) by Maurice van Essche was sold in the Modern & Contemporary African Art auction at Sothebys in London in October 2020. The price achieved of GBP 5,040.00 (€ 5,596.49) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Maurice van Essche - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work On The Beach, which sold at auction in May 2017 for GBP 11,875.00 (€ 13,638.92).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Untitled (Still Life) von Maurice van Essche wurde im Oktober 2020 in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary African Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.040,00 (€ 5.596,49) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Maurice van Essche mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit On The Beach beobachtet, die im Mai 2017 für GBP 11.875,00 (€ 13.638,92) versteigert wurde.
