Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2013 Sothebys in New York held the auction 19th Century European Art, which included the work British summer by Edmund Dulac. The price achieved of USD 34,375.00 (€ 26,466.74) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 40,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edmund Dulac - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Little Mermaid (At the mere sight of the bright liquid they drew back in terror), which sold at auction in June 2010 for GBP 55,250.00 (€ 67,189.14).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2013 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion 19th Century European Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit British summer von Edmund Dulac zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 34.375,00 (€ 26.466,74) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 30.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Edmund Dulac mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Little Mermaid (At the mere sight of the bright liquid they drew back in terror) beobachtet, die im Juni 2010 für GBP 55.250,00 (€ 67.189,14) versteigert wurde.
