In October 2014 Christies in London held the auction European Noble & Private Collections Including Fine Tapestries Part II, which included the work Portrait of Joseph Jean-Baptiste Fleuriau d’Armenonville (1661-1728 ), Conseiller d’Etat , three-quarter length, wearing official robes and a periwig by Hyacinthe Rigaud. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 12,500.00 (€ 15,960.69), 56% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hyacinthe Rigaud achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 56 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2014 führte Christies in London die Auktion European Noble & Private Collections Including Fine Tapestries Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Joseph Jean-Baptiste Fleuriau d’Armenonville (1661-1728 ), Conseiller d’Etat , three-quarter length, wearing official robes and a periwig von Hyacinthe Rigaud zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 15.960,69) und damit 56% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hyacinthe Rigaud erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of Pierre-Vincent Bertin (Circa1654 - 1711) im Juli 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 409.250,00 (€ 519.956,73).
