Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2009 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters & 19th Century ArtDay Sale, which included the work The Philistines Stricken after Looking into the Ark of the Covenant by Sébastien Bourdon. The price achieved of GBP 54,050.00 (€ 61,330.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Sébastien Bourdon - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Deposition From The Cross, which sold at auction in January 2014 for USD 281,000.00 (€ 208,148.15).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2009 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters & 19th Century ArtDay Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Philistines Stricken after Looking into the Ark of the Covenant von Sébastien Bourdon zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 54.050,00 (€ 61.330,55) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Sébastien Bourdon mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Deposition From The Cross beobachtet, die im Januar 2014 für USD 281.000,00 (€ 208.148,15) versteigert wurde.
