A top price for Paul Helleu - as previously expected
In November 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction European Paintings including The Orientalist Sale, Symbolism and the Poetic Vision and Spanish Painting, which included the work French Portrait De Femme by Paul Helleu. The auction ended at the price of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 18,136.13), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, French Portrait De Femme is the most expensive artwork by Paul Helleu that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im November 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion European Paintings including The Orientalist Sale, Symbolism and the Poetic Vision and Spanish Painting durch, in der auch die Arbeit French Portrait De Femme von Paul Helleu zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 15.000,00 (€ 18.136,13) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist French Portrait De Femme das teuerste Kunstwerk von Paul Helleu, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
