Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by René Duvillier could be acquired at Christies in New York in November 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Selections from the Israel Museum, Jerusalem Sold to Benefit the Acquisitions Fund auction, the work Abîme tant désiré changed hands for USD 1,000.00 (€ 883.16) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Admittedly, works by René Duvillier have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Queue De Comète [Tail Of A Comet|AID331177] in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 4,788.00 (€ 4,110.93).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von René Duvillier konnte im November 2018 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Selections from the Israel Museum, Jerusalem Sold to Benefit the Acquisitions Fund wechselte die Arbeit Abîme tant désiré für USD 1.000,00 (€ 883,16) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von René Duvillier auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Queue De Comète [Tail Of A Comet|AID331177] im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 4.788,00 (€ 4.110,93).
