Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Le Passage des oies sauvages by Jean-François Millet was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2018. The price achieved of USD 468,500.00 (€ 413,430.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 400,000.00 – 600,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean-François Millet - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work L'Horizon (La plaine), which sold at auction in October 2014 for USD 1,985,000.00 (€ 1,584,197.92).
