A top price for Max Slevogt

When the work Selbstbildnis im Garten by Max Slevogt was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in June 2015, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 200,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at EUR 721,500.00. This high result makes Selbstbildnis im Garten the most expensive artwork by Max Slevogt that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Max Slevogt

Als die Arbeit Selbstbildnis im Garten von Max Slevogt im Juni 2015 bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – EUR 200.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit EUR 721.500,00 mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Selbstbildnis im Garten zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Max Slevogt, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
