Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Robespierre And His Accomplices Being Led To Their Execution by Pierre-Antoine Demachy was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 7,000.00 – 9,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 5,000.00 (€ 4,428.70). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pierre-Antoine Demachy achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The clearing of the Colonnade du Louvre and the Demolition of the Hôtel Rouillé in May 2000 with an auction result of USD 424,000.00 (€ 454,545.45).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Robespierre And His Accomplices Being Led To Their Execution von Pierre-Antoine Demachy im Januar 2015 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 7.000,00 – 9.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 5.000,00 (€ 4.428,70) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pierre-Antoine Demachy erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The clearing of the Colonnade du Louvre and the Demolition of the Hôtel Rouillé im Mai 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 424.000,00 (€ 454.545,45).
