Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Coastal Landscape Near Naples by Pierre-Jacques Volaire was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in June 2014. The result of USD 100,000.00 (€ 73,046.02) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pierre-Jacques Volaire - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vesuvius erupting at night seen from the foothills, with elegant onlookers, a view of the Bay of Naples beyond, which sold at auction in July 2005 for GBP 142,400.00 (€ 206,549.86).

Für andere Arbeiten von Pierre-Jacques Volaire mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Vesuvius erupting at night seen from the foothills, with elegant onlookers, a view of the Bay of Naples beyond beobachtet, die im Juli 2005 für GBP 142.400,00 (€ 206.549,86) versteigert wurde.
