Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2020 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters Paintings & Sculpture, which included the work View of Harlech Castle, with peasants beside a lake by Philippe Jacques de Loutherbourg. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,365.68) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Philippe Jacques de Loutherbourg achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A wooded landscape with two monkeys eating grapes in October 2014 with an auction result of GBP 116,500.00 (€ 148,753.67).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2020 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters Paintings & Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit View of Harlech Castle, with peasants beside a lake von Philippe Jacques de Loutherbourg zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 7.500,00 (€ 8.365,68) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Philippe Jacques de Loutherbourg erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A wooded landscape with two monkeys eating grapes im Oktober 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 116.500,00 (€ 148.753,67).
