Despite a disappointment, a good price for Sébastien Norblin
In January 2005 a collector was able to acquire the work A classical landscape with a city in the background, the death of Hyppolytus in the foreground by Sébastien Norblin for USD 2,400.00 (€ 1,839.22). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master and 19th Century Drawings at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, A classical landscape with a city in the background, the death of Hyppolytus in the foreground is the most expensive artwork by Sébastien Norblin that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Sébastien Norblin
Im Januar 2005 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit A classical landscape with a city in the background, the death of Hyppolytus in the foreground von Sébastien Norblin für USD 2.400,00 (€ 1.839,22) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master and 19th Century Drawings bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist A classical landscape with a city in the background, the death of Hyppolytus in the foreground das teuerste Kunstwerk von Sébastien Norblin, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
