Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2011 Sothebys in New York held the auction Old Master Paintings, which included the work Portrait Of A Man, Traditionally Called Claude Louis Hector, Duc De Villars (1653-1734) by Hyacinthe Rigaud. The price achieved of USD 92,500.00 (€ 63,692.07) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Admittedly, works by Hyacinthe Rigaud have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait Of Pierre-Vincent Bertin (Circa1654 - 1711) in July 2008 with an auction result of GBP 409,250.00 (€ 519,956.73).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2011 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of A Man, Traditionally Called Claude Louis Hector, Duc De Villars (1653-1734) von Hyacinthe Rigaud zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 92.500,00 (€ 63.692,07) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Hyacinthe Rigaud auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait Of Pierre-Vincent Bertin (Circa1654 - 1711) im Juli 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 409.250,00 (€ 519.956,73).
