Auction result misses estimated price range
In April 2016 a collector was able to acquire the work Portrait Of The Count Siemontkowsky Bystry; And Portrait Of The Countess Siemontkowsky Bystry by Élisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Brun for USD 269,000.00 (€ 235,119.31). This price was achieved in the auction Revolution at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 300,000.00 – 500,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Élisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Brun have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait of the artist, bust-length in October 2017 with an auction result of USD 1,512,500.00 (€ 1,298,506.18).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im April 2016 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Portrait Of The Count Siemontkowsky Bystry; And Portrait Of The Countess Siemontkowsky Bystry von Élisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Brun für USD 269.000,00 (€ 235.119,31) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Revolution bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 300.000,00 – 500.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Élisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Brun auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait of the artist, bust-length im Oktober 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.512.500,00 (€ 1.298.506,18).
