Auction result well in line with expectations

In May 2012 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters & British Paintings, which included the work Hounds attacking a bull by Paul de Vos. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 16,250.00 (€ 20,246.79) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paul de Vos achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le concert d'oiseaux in September 2020 with an auction result of EUR 310,000.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai 2012 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters & British Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Hounds attacking a bull von Paul de Vos zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 16.250,00 (€ 20.246,79) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Paul de Vos erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le concert d'oiseaux im September 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 310.000,00.
