Auction result well in line with expectations
In April this year Bonhams held the auction Impressionist & Modern Art, which included the work Moulin de Lavaugrasse à Bessines-sur-Gartempe (Haute-Vienne) by Maurice Utrillo. The price achieved of GBP 40,620.00 (€ 46,293.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Maurice Utrillo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le Paravent De Maurice Utrillo, 1939 in November 2010 with an auction result of EUR 835,540.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Moulin de Lavaugrasse à Bessines-sur-Gartempe (Haute-Vienne) von Maurice Utrillo zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 40.620,00 (€ 46.293,55) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Maurice Utrillo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le Paravent De Maurice Utrillo, 1939 im November 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 835.540,00.
