Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of an actor closing his eyes, bust-length by Pierre-Alexandre Wille was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2000. It changed hands for a price of USD 1,410.00 (€ 1,511.58) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pierre-Alexandre Wille achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "La Mère Indulgente" Et "Les Conseils Maternels" in March 2016 with an auction result of EUR 22,750.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of an actor closing his eyes, bust-length von Pierre-Alexandre Wille kam im Mai 2000 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 1.410,00 (€ 1.511,58) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pierre-Alexandre Wille erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "La Mère Indulgente" Et "Les Conseils Maternels" im März 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 22.750,00.
