A top price for Pierre Gobert
When the work Portrait Of A Young Boy In A Hunting Jacket Holding A Musket by Pierre Gobert was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2008, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 15,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at USD 73,000.00 (€ 49,188.06). This high result makes Portrait Of A Young Boy In A Hunting Jacket Holding A Musket the most expensive artwork by Pierre Gobert that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Pierre Gobert
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of A Young Boy In A Hunting Jacket Holding A Musket von Pierre Gobert im Januar 2008 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 15.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 73.000,00 (€ 49.188,06) mehr als viermal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Portrait Of A Young Boy In A Hunting Jacket Holding A Musket zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Pierre Gobert, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
