Auction result well in line with expectations

In March last year Sothebys in London held the auction The Orientalist Sale, which included the work La Corne d'Or by Félix Ziem. The price achieved of GBP 47,880.00 (€ 56,767.13) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Félix Ziem - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bateau pavoisé lors de la fête de l’Assomption, which sold at auction in July 2017 for GBP 191,000.00 (€ 213,126.67).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im März letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in London die Auktion The Orientalist Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit La Corne d'Or von Félix Ziem zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 47.880,00 (€ 56.767,13) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Félix Ziem mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bateau pavoisé lors de la fête de l’Assomption beobachtet, die im Juli 2017 für GBP 191.000,00 (€ 213.126,67) versteigert wurde.
