Auction result misses estimated price range
In January last year a collector was able to acquire the work Portrait of Mademoiselle Mars in Muscovite Attire, after Baron Gérard by Pierre Louis Bouvier for USD 1,638.00 (€ 1,460.93). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master and British Works on Paper at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pierre Louis Bouvier achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of A Lady, Half Length, Holding An Artist'S Portfolio, Seated At A Table With A Chest Of Drawing Paraphernalia in January 2016 with an auction result of USD 56,250.00 (€ 51,929.47).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Januar letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Portrait of Mademoiselle Mars in Muscovite Attire, after Baron Gérard von Pierre Louis Bouvier für USD 1.638,00 (€ 1.460,93) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master and British Works on Paper bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pierre Louis Bouvier erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of A Lady, Half Length, Holding An Artist'S Portfolio, Seated At A Table With A Chest Of Drawing Paraphernalia im Januar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 56.250,00 (€ 51.929,47).
