Auction result well in line with expectations
In February 2015 Christies in London held the auction Impressionist/Modern Evening Sale, which included the work La Seine à Vernon, or La risée sur la riviére by Pierre Bonnard. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 500,000.00 – 800,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 542,500.00 (€ 748,026.93) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pierre Bonnard achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work La Terrasse Ou Une Terrasse À Grasse in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 19,570,000.00 (€ 17,553,143.78).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Februar 2015 führte Christies in London die Auktion Impressionist/Modern Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit La Seine à Vernon, or La risée sur la riviére von Pierre Bonnard zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 500.000,00 – 800.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 542.500,00 (€ 748.026,93) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pierre Bonnard erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit La Terrasse Ou Une Terrasse À Grasse im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 19.570.000,00 (€ 17.553.143,78).
