Auction result misses estimated price range
In October 2017 a collector was able to acquire the work Selected Images of Medinet-Habou, Propylées du Thoutmoseum by Maxime Du Camp for USD 6,000.00 (€ 5,151.10). This price was achieved in the auction The Odyssey of Collecting: Photographs from Joy of Giving Something Foundation at Phillips in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Maxime Du Camp achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Selected Images From Egypt, Nubia, Palestine And Syria: Photographic Pictures Collected During The Years 1849, 1850 And 1851 in October 2018 with an auction result of USD 60,000.00 (€ 52,947.41).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Oktober 2017 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Selected Images of Medinet-Habou, Propylées du Thoutmoseum von Maxime Du Camp für USD 6.000,00 (€ 5.151,10) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The Odyssey of Collecting: Photographs from Joy of Giving Something Foundation bei Phillips in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Maxime Du Camp erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Selected Images From Egypt, Nubia, Palestine And Syria: Photographic Pictures Collected During The Years 1849, 1850 And 1851 im Oktober 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 60.000,00 (€ 52.947,41).
