Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Portrait of a gentleman, half-length by Étienne Aubry was sold in the Old Masters auction at Christies in New York in October 2016. The result of USD 20,000.00 (€ 18,244.85) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Admittedly, works by Étienne Aubry have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work 'La Turque', presumed portrait of Mademoiselle Duthé (1748-1830), mistress of the Comte d'Artois, full-length, reclining on an 'ottomane' in October 2018 with an auction result of USD 187,500.00 (€ 165,460.64).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Portrait of a gentleman, half-length von Étienne Aubry wurde im Oktober 2016 in der Auktion Old Masters bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 18.244,85) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Étienne Aubry auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit 'La Turque', presumed portrait of Mademoiselle Duthé (1748-1830), mistress of the Comte d'Artois, full-length, reclining on an 'ottomane' im Oktober 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 187.500,00 (€ 165.460,64).
