In September 2005 Christies in New York held the auction Old Master Paintings, which included the work A trompe-l'oeil: A palette with a spatula and paint brushes, an engraving, an oil painting, and a drawing with a pen and compass on a wooden partition by Jean-François de la Motte. The »bidding war« ended at USD 26,400.00 (€ 21,894.18), 32% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean-François de la Motte - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Trompe L'Oeil Still Life, With A Painted Landscape, A Relief And A Mezzotint Of Peasants By A Cottage, which sold at auction in July 2011 for GBP 55,250.00 (€ 63,407.64).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 32 % übertroffen
Im September 2005 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A trompe-l'oeil: A palette with a spatula and paint brushes, an engraving, an oil painting, and a drawing with a pen and compass on a wooden partition von Jean-François de la Motte zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 26.400,00 (€ 21.894,18) und damit 32% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Jean-François de la Motte mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Trompe L'Oeil Still Life, With A Painted Landscape, A Relief And A Mezzotint Of Peasants By A Cottage beobachtet, die im Juli 2011 für GBP 55.250,00 (€ 63.407,64) versteigert wurde.
