Auction result well in line with expectations

In December 2016 Sothebys in London held the auction 19th Century European Paintings, which included the work Belgian la Grotte Du Drac, Manacor by William Degouve de Nuncques. The price achieved of GBP 50,000.00 (€ 58,458.11) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Degouve de Nuncques - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Belgian Reve De Voyage, which sold at auction in November 2008 for GBP 109,250.00 (€ 132,091.46).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Dezember 2016 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion 19th Century European Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Belgian la Grotte Du Drac, Manacor von William Degouve de Nuncques zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 50.000,00 (€ 58.458,11) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von William Degouve de Nuncques mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Belgian Reve De Voyage beobachtet, die im November 2008 für GBP 109.250,00 (€ 132.091,46) versteigert wurde.
