Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Le bassin aux nymphéas by Claude Monet was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2016. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 25,000,000.00 – 35,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 27,045,000.00 (€ 24,288,280.20) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Claude Monet have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Meules in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 110,747,000.00 (€ 99,333,572.52).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Le bassin aux nymphéas von Claude Monet kam im Mai 2016 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 25.000.000,00 – 35.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 27.045.000,00 (€ 24.288.280,20) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Claude Monet auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Meules im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 110.747.000,00 (€ 99.333.572,52).
