Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work French Jeune Fille Dans Une Vasque by Paul Delaroche was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2014, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 28,125.00 (€ 20,619.50). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paul Delaroche achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Napoleon at Fontainebleau, 31 March 1814 in December 2010 with an auction result of GBP 289,250.00 (€ 335,529.13).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit French Jeune Fille Dans Une Vasque von Paul Delaroche im Mai 2014 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 28.125,00 (€ 20.619,50) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Paul Delaroche erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Napoleon at Fontainebleau, 31 March 1814 im Dezember 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 289.250,00 (€ 335.529,13).
