A top price for Eugene Deveria - as previously expected
The work The Reluctant Scholars- Portraits of Mr. G. Barber's Sons by Eugene Deveria was sold in the 19th Century European Art auction at Christies in New York in October 2016. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 52,500.00 (€ 47,892.72) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Reluctant Scholars- Portraits of Mr. G. Barber's Sons is the most expensive artwork by Eugene Deveria that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit The Reluctant Scholars- Portraits of Mr. G. Barber's Sons von Eugene Deveria wurde im Oktober 2016 in der Auktion 19th Century European Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 50.000,00 – 70.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 52.500,00 (€ 47.892,72) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Reluctant Scholars- Portraits of Mr. G. Barber's Sons das teuerste Kunstwerk von Eugene Deveria, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
