Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe

Two riders weathering a storm, a church being struck by lightning beyond

Found at Christies, London
Christie's Interiors, Lot 287
24. May - 24. May 2011
Estimate: 1.000 - 1.500 GBP
Price realised: 2.500 GBP
Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe (Lille 1716-1794 Fontainebleau)
Two riders weathering a storm, a church being struck by lightning beyond
indistinctly signed and dated 'V [Blarenberghe] 1773 (?)' (lower left)
bodycolour, on vellum
6 3/8 x 8 3/8 in. (16.3 x 21.3 cm.)

Upper estimate price exceeded by 67 %.

The work Two riders weathering a storm, a church being struck by lightning beyond by Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2011. It achieved a price of GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,858.76), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Louis XV with the Royal Hounds in front of the Pavillion of Croix-Fontaine belonging to the Fermier Générale Bouret in October 2021 with an auction result of USD 125,000.00 (€ 108,206.37).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 67 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Two riders weathering a storm, a church being struck by lightning beyond von Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe kam im Mai 2011 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 2.500,00 (€ 2.858,76) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 67%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Louis-Nicolas van Blarenberghe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Louis XV with the Royal Hounds in front of the Pavillion of Croix-Fontaine belonging to the Fermier Générale Bouret im Oktober 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 125.000,00 (€ 108.206,37).
