Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Masque d'Hanako, étude type D, Agrandissement dit aussi 'Tête d'Angoisse de la Mort' by Auguste Rodin was auctioned at Bonhams in May this year. The price achieved of USD 38,175.00 (€ 35,831.61) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. 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
Die Arbeit Masque d'Hanako, étude type D, Agrandissement dit aussi 'Tête d'Angoisse de la Mort' von Auguste Rodin kam im Mai diesen Jahres bei Bonhams zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 38.175,00 (€ 35.831,61) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 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).
