Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2004 Christies in London held the auction Old Master and 19th Century Drawings, which included the work Heads of a bearded man, a child and a woman and two studies of hands by Nicolas Bernard Lépicié. The price achieved of GBP 4,780.00 (€ 7,223.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nicolas Bernard Lépicié achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Louis-Philippe, Duc De Valois, Au Berceau in September 2015 with an auction result of EUR 231,000.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master and 19th Century Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Heads of a bearded man, a child and a woman and two studies of hands von Nicolas Bernard Lépicié zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.780,00 (€ 7.223,63) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nicolas Bernard Lépicié erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Louis-Philippe, Duc De Valois, Au Berceau im September 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 231.000,00.
