Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2019 Sothebys in London held the auction Important Works from the Najd Collection, which included the work The Guard by Ludwig Deutsch. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 1,200,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 1,335,000.00 (€ 1,548,504.26). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ludwig Deutsch - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Tribute, which sold at auction in October 2019 for GBP 4,298,400.00 (€ 4,985,835.73).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2019 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Important Works from the Najd Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Guard von Ludwig Deutsch zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 1.200.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 1.335.000,00 (€ 1.548.504,26) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Ludwig Deutsch mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Tribute beobachtet, die im Oktober 2019 für GBP 4.298.400,00 (€ 4.985.835,73) versteigert wurde.
