Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Entre la richesse et l'amour by William-Adolphe Bouguereau was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2017. It changed hands for a price of USD 588,500.00 (€ 505,236.95) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 400,000.00 – 600,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William-Adolphe Bouguereau achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work La Jeunesse De Bacchus in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 20,766,000.00 (€ 18,625,885.73).
