Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Narcisse Berchère could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in June 2011 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master and 19th Century European Art auction, the work Outside The Walls Of A North African City changed hands for USD 11,875.00 (€ 8,176.69) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Narcisse Berchère - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mahallet-el-Kebir (Lower Egypt), which sold at auction in March last year for GBP 23,940.00 (€ 28,383.56).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Narcisse Berchère konnte im Juni 2011 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master and 19th Century European Art wechselte die Arbeit Outside The Walls Of A North African City für USD 11.875,00 (€ 8.176,69) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Narcisse Berchère mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Mahallet-el-Kebir (Lower Egypt) beobachtet, die im März letzten Jahres für GBP 23.940,00 (€ 28.383,56) versteigert wurde.
