In June 2000 Christies in London held the auction The Jeanson Collection, which included the work Perruche Amazone - Amazonian Parrot - Amazona aestiva Perroquet cendré - Ash-coloured Parrot - Psittacus erithacus by Edouard Traviès. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,762.50 (€ 2,793.78), 18% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edouard Traviès achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Studies of birds: Livingstone's tauraco, Red-winged crested cuckoo, and Common cuckoo; Royal flycatcher and Scarlet-spectacled wattle-eye; Common redstart, Nightingale, and Black redstart; Helmeted guinea fowl, Little bustard, and Great bustard; Red-bille in January 2017 with an auction result of USD 32,500.00 (€
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juni 2000 führte Christies in London die Auktion The Jeanson Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Perruche Amazone - Amazonian Parrot - Amazona aestiva Perroquet cendré - Ash-coloured Parrot - Psittacus erithacus von Edouard Traviès zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.762,50 (€ 2.793,78) und damit 18% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edouard Traviès erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Studies of birds: Livingstone's tauraco, Red-winged crested cuckoo, and Common cuckoo; Royal flycatcher and Scarlet-spectacled wattle-eye; Common redstart, Nightingale, and Black redstart; Helmeted guinea fowl, Little bustard, and Great bustard; Red-bille im Januar 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 32.500,00 (€ 30.109,32).
