Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
The work The Massacre of the Innocents by Nicolas Beatrizet was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2019. It achieved a price of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,432.06), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nicolas Beatrizet achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Annunciation in July 2020 with an auction result of GBP 52,500.00 (€ 58,559.75).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Massacre of the Innocents von Nicolas Beatrizet kam im Dezember 2019 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.432,06) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nicolas Beatrizet erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Annunciation im Juli 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 52.500,00 (€ 58.559,75).
