Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Pierre Olivier Joseph Coomans could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in January 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master and 19th Century European Art auction, the work Feeding The Turtle changed hands for USD 9,375.00 (€ 6,316.96) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pierre Olivier Joseph Coomans achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Dancing Girls in June 2006 with an auction result of GBP 60,000.00 (€ 86,819.00).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Pierre Olivier Joseph Coomans konnte im Januar 2008 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master and 19th Century European Art wechselte die Arbeit Feeding The Turtle für USD 9.375,00 (€ 6.316,96) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pierre Olivier Joseph Coomans erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Dancing Girls im Juni 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 60.000,00 (€ 86.819,00).
