Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of a Maharaja by Hugo Vilfred Pedersen was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2010. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,294.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hugo Vilfred Pedersen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work At the Baths in April 2003 with an auction result of USD 47,800.00 (€ 38,925.08).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of a Maharaja von Hugo Vilfred Pedersen kam im April 2010 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 1.125,00 (€ 1.294,65) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hugo Vilfred Pedersen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit At the Baths im April 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 47.800,00 (€ 38.925,08).
