Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Environs d'Alger by Albert Marquet was auctioned at Sothebys in London in May last year, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 30,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 151,200.00 (€ 177,872.41). Admittedly, works by Albert Marquet have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work La Plage De Sainte-Adresse in June 2008 with an auction result of GBP 1,217,250.00 (€ 1,538,644.81).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Environs d'Alger von Albert Marquet im Mai letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 30.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 151.200,00 (€ 177.872,41) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Albert Marquet auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit La Plage De Sainte-Adresse im Juni 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.217.250,00 (€ 1.538.644,81).
