Auction result well in line with expectations
In May last year Sothebys in London held the auction Modern Art Online including Works from the Collection of Marina Picasso, which included the work La Sainte Face by Georges Rouault. The price achieved of GBP 32,760.00 (€ 38,539.02) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 40,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Georges Rouault achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Fleurs décoratives in May 2001 with an auction result of USD 644,000.00 (€ 761,679.48).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Modern Art Online including Works from the Collection of Marina Picasso durch, in der auch die Arbeit La Sainte Face von Georges Rouault zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 32.760,00 (€ 38.539,02) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 30.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Georges Rouault erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Fleurs décoratives im Mai 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 644.000,00 (€ 761.679,48).
