Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A young girl playing a guitar by Pierre Mignard was sold in the Important Old Master Paintings auction at Christies in New York in May 2003. The price achieved of USD 35,850.00 (€ 30,469.15) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pierre Mignard - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of a cleric, said to be Jean-François-Paul de Gondi, future Cardinal de Retz (1613-1679), seated three-quarter-length, a book in his hand, at a table, which sold at auction in December 2005 for GBP 78,000.00 (€ 113,212.63).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A young girl playing a guitar von Pierre Mignard wurde im Mai 2003 in der Auktion Important Old Master Paintings bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 35.850,00 (€ 30.469,15) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Pierre Mignard mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of a cleric, said to be Jean-François-Paul de Gondi, future Cardinal de Retz (1613-1679), seated three-quarter-length, a book in his hand, at a table beobachtet, die im Dezember 2005 für GBP 78.000,00 (€ 113.212,63) versteigert wurde.
