A top price for Auguste Garnerey
When the work An elegant family in a Neo-Gothic interior by Auguste Garnerey was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at GBP 58,850.00 (€ 74,959.08). This high result makes An elegant family in a Neo-Gothic interior the most expensive artwork by Auguste Garnerey that we have observed at auctions so far.

Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 8.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 58.850,00 (€ 74.959,08) mehr als siebenmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht An elegant family in a Neo-Gothic interior zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Auguste Garnerey, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
