Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
The work Self-Portrait by William-Adolphe Bouguereau was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2021. It achieved a price of USD 252,000.00 (€ 207,663.78), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William-Adolphe Bouguereau achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work La Jeunesse De Bacchus in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 20,766,000.00 (€ 18,625,885.73).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Self-Portrait von William-Adolphe Bouguereau kam im Januar 2021 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 252.000,00 (€ 207.663,78) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 26%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William-Adolphe Bouguereau erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit La Jeunesse De Bacchus im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 20.766.000,00 (€ 18.625.885,73).
