Some results in our Saint Cloud auctions


Column Appraisal and valuation, Furniture and works of art

A few weeks ago we announced two auctions to which Authenticite collaborated. We propose you this week to look at the selling price of some lots that have caught our attention and mark current market trends.

 

 

 

The auction of 30th September in Saint Cloud was dedicated to drawings, old master paintings, furniture and works of art. Several significant results are to be retained in this sale.

 

Retain the Lot 36 described as a Roman school of the eighteenth century, portrait of a man, an oil on canvas. Conservatively estimated 1 500 to 2 000 Euros, our painting fetched to 24 000 Euros. Would some bidders have recognized the author of this painting?

Lot 65, that we had reported in our favorites, oil on paper by Jules René Hervé entitled Jeune fille au bénitier sold for 980 Euros, almost 10 times the low estimate 100/150 Euros. This auction confirms the prices of this well-known artist.

Religious art was represented by many lots, particularly Lot 148, a small paperolles reliquary dating from the eighteenth century sold for 700 Euros against an estimate of 80 to 120 Euros.

 

If porcelain and tapestries did not sold very well, bidders focus on a rare Regence giltwood and extensively carved console; it sold for 12 800 Euros for an estimate of 8000 to 12 000 Euros (lot 194).
