Auction result well in line with expectations
In March this year Christies in London held the auction Impressionist and Modern Art Day and Works on Paper Sale, which included the work Éternelle idole, grand modèle by Auguste Rodin. The price achieved of GBP 630,000.00 (€ 716,746.69) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500,000.00 – 800,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Auguste Rodin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work L'Éternel Printemps in May 2016 with an auction result of USD 20,410,000.00 (€ 18,329,591.38).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März diesen Jahres führte Christies in London die Auktion Impressionist and Modern Art Day and Works on Paper Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Éternelle idole, grand modèle von Auguste Rodin zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 630.000,00 (€ 716.746,69) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 500.000,00 – 800.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Auguste Rodin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit L'Éternel Printemps im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 20.410.000,00 (€ 18.329.591,38).
