Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Women Of Dominica Washing Clothes In A Stream by Augustin Brunias was sold in the Travel, Science and Natural History auction at Christies in London in April 2013. It changed hands for a price of GBP 11,875.00 (€ 14,013.19) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Augustin Brunias achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Free Women Of Dominica Bathing In A Stream; Free Women Of Dominica; A Young Couple And Child Promenading, Dominica; Flower Girls Of Dominica; Free Women Of Dominica With Child; And A Native Family Of St. Vincent in June last year with an auction result of USD 214,200.00 (€ 204,604.07).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Women Of Dominica Washing Clothes In A Stream von Augustin Brunias wurde im April 2013 in der Auktion Travel, Science and Natural History bei Christies in London versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 11.875,00 (€ 14.013,19) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Augustin Brunias erzielen.
