Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Man and Serpent by Leonard French was sold in the AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL & CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS auction at Christies in Melbourne in August 2005. The price achieved of AUD 3,346.00 (€ 2,039.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 2,500.00 – 4,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Leonard French achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Australian The Crossing in May 2007 with an auction result of AUD 156,000.00 (€ 95,921.50).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Man and Serpent von Leonard French wurde im August 2005 in der Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL & CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS bei Christies in Melbourne versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 3.346,00 (€ 2.039,08) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 2.500,00 – 4.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Leonard French erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Australian The Crossing im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 156.000,00 (€ 95.921,50).
