Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Portrait Of Philippe-Grégoire Delaroche, Son Of The Artist, Half Length, Leaning On A Ledge by Paul Delaroche was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in February 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 15,000.00 (€ 11,468.77). 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 Portrait Of Philippe-Grégoire Delaroche, Son Of The Artist, Half Length, Leaning On A Ledge von Paul Delaroche im Februar 2013 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 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 15.000,00 (€ 11.468,77) 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).
