The painting, which measured 85 x 46 inches, was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1912&#8230; it carried a $1.2-1.8M estimate and hammered for $1.65M ($2.01M w\/p). The seller purchased the piece back in 2000 for $1.25M, so they made a little profit! Peder S.

This large, single-figure painting was last on the public market in 1992 and sold for $198K. It was purchased by a London dealer and sold to a collector in the US; the current seller was a relative.

The first was Adolph von Menzel\u2019s\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Mondschein \u00fcber den D\u00e4chern von Berlin<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. A small (12.5 x 7.5 inch) gouache on paper that was a restituted work and was being sold on behalf of the current owner and the heirs of Alfred and Gertrude Sommerguth. I must say that when viewing the sale, I paid very little attention to it, but at least two people really wanted it. Not sure why, but then again, what do I know?\u00a0 The work carried a $200-300K estimate and sold for $550K ($687.5K w\/p)\u2026 so I am sure both parties were happy. The other was a small (12 x 9 inch) study of a jockey by Munnings. The painting was from the Moran collection, had a $15-20K estimate, and sold for $40K ($50K w\/p).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sadly, some pricey works went unsold. Among the more expensive were Julius Stewart&#8217;s\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Hunt Supper<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0(est. $2-3M), Bouguereau&#8217;s\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Tricoteuse<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0(est. $1.2-1.8M), Munning&#8217;s\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Who&#8217;s the Lady? And Two Studies<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0($800-$1.2M), Segantini&#8217;s\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ritratto dells signora Torelli<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0(est. $600-800K), and Edward Hughes&#8217;\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Wings of the Morning<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0($400-600K). Also, Gustav Bauernfeind&#8217;s\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives at Sunset<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0(est. $2-3M), was withdrawn just before the sale. The funny thing is that the same painting was offered in a 2020 Sotheby&#8217;s London sale with an estimate of \u00a33-4M and was also withdrawn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When the short session finished, of the 36 works offered, 22 sold (a sell-through rate of 61%), and the total take was $8.09M ($10.05M w\/p). The presale estimate was $12.9-$19.8M, so they were way short even with the buyer&#8217;s premium. Digging a bit deeper, we find that of the sold lots 9 were below, 6 within, and 7 above their expected range. When we added the unsold lots, this left them with an accuracy rate of just 16.6%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We all want to see these sales succeed, so the main auction rooms must be very choosy with the works they offer. The estimates need to reflect the quality and salability of each piece, and those works with serious condition issues should be pushed to the side.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On October 13, Christie&#8217;s presented their European Art Part I auction, which included just 37 lots.
