The fourth work was Courbet&#8217;s <em>La For\u00eat en Hiver<\/em> which carried an $800-1.2M estimate (seemed pretty steep to me) and it failed to sell &#8230; this one sold in 2007 for $421K.\u00a0 You are probably getting the picture that this was not going to be a very successful session &#8230; so let&#8217;s get to some of the ones that did sell.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_38434\" style=\"width: 155px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/dante-gabriel-rossetti-proserpine.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38434\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/dante-gabriel-rossetti-proserpine-145x300.jpg\" alt=\"Rossetti &quot;Proserpine&quot;\" width=\"145\" height=\"300\" data-uw-rm-alt-original=\"Rossetti &quot;Proserpine&quot;\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-38434\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rossetti &#8220;Proserpine&#8221;<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Taking the top slot was lot six &#8211; John W.

Coming in second was a large <a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/william_a_bouguereau.html\">Bouguereau<\/a> titled <em>Chansons de printemps<\/em> which was estimated at $2-3M and sold for $3M ($3.6M w\/p).\u00a0 This painting was last on the market in 2007 and sold for $1.7M on a $1-1.5M estimate.\u00a0 Rounding out the top three was a beautiful work on paper by Rossetti &#8211; <em>Proserpine<\/em> &#8211; that they expected to bring between $3-5M, but it fell a little short when it hammered for $2.9M ($3.5M w\/p).<\/p>\n<p>There really wasn&#8217;t much positive news in this sale and other works that could not find a buyer included those by Godward (est. $1-1.5M), <a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/bio\/jean-leon-gerome\/\">Gerome<\/a> ($500-800K), Ernst ($500-800K &#8211; this same work sold in 2015 for $191K &#8230; someone was being a bit greedy), Zorn ($300-500K), and a Blanche ($500-700K &#8211; this one last sold in 2013 for \u20ac280K\/$362K on a \u20ac40-50K estimate).<\/p>\n<p>By the end of the short session, of the 24 works offered, only 9 found buyers (that left them with a rather disappointing sell-through rate of 37.5% &#8211; almost 2\/3 of the sale was unsold), and the total take was $14.5M ($17.5M w\/p).\u00a0 The presale estimate range was $20.7-31.6M, so they really fell short of their goal.\u00a0 Of the 9 sold lots, only 3 sold within, and 6 below their estimate range &#8230; leaving them with an accuracy rate of just 12.5%.<\/p>\n<p>This was a real lesson on what not to do.\u00a0 Separate the most expensive lots from the rest of the sale, offer works that are not truly fresh to the market, and placing estimates that are not achievable. Hopefully, they will take a different tact in 2020. What is kind of funny is that a $17.5M sale of 19th-century works would normally be something to cheer about, but not in this case.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On October 28th, Christie&#8217;s presented their 19th Century works of art in New York.\u00a0 Now I was a bit surprised when I received 2 catalogs in the mail &#8211; one for the morning session and another for the afternoon.\u00a0 Since &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/2019\/10\/christies-european-art-part-1-a-lesson-in-what-not-to-do\/?contemporary=N\">More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":38437,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[409,207,20],"class_list":["post-38413","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-rehs-galleries","tag-auction-failures","tag-auction-news","tag-auction-results"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.7 (Yoast SEO v27.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Christie\u2019s European Art: Part 1 \u2013 A Lesson In What Not To Do<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/2019\/10\/christies-european-art-part-1-a-lesson-in-what-not-to-do\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Christie\u2019s European Art: Part 1 - A Lesson In What Not To Do\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"On October 28th, Christie&#8217;s presented their 19th Century works of art in New York.\u00a0 Now I was a bit surprised when I received 2 catalogs in the mail &#8211; one for the morning session and another for the afternoon.\u00a0 Since &hellip; More...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/2019\/10\/christies-european-art-part-1-a-lesson-in-what-not-to-do\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Rehs Galleries\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RehsGalleriesInc\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:author\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/howard.rehs\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-10-29T20:08:30+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-04-16T04:57:16+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/John_William_Waterhouse_-_The_Soul_of_the_Rose_1903.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"910\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Howard L.
