This artwork by Philibert Cockx achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in May 2010. In the Impressionist and Modern Art auction, the work In Front of the Window sold for EUR 16,250.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philibert Cockx - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work La dame en bleu, which sold at auction in June 2012 for EUR 51,400.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Philibert Cockx erzielte im Mai 2010 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Impressionist and Modern Art wurde die Arbeit In Front of the Window für EUR 16.250,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 7.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Philibert Cockx mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit La dame en bleu beobachtet, die im Juni 2012 für EUR 51.400,00 versteigert wurde.
