Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In July 2020 Bonhams in London held the auction Old Master Paintings Part II, which included the work Rural genre scene with The Prodigal Son by Abraham Bloemaert. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 18,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 18,812.50 (€ 20,983.91). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Abraham Bloemaert achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Mythological Scene, Perhaps Venus And Cupid in January 2013 with an auction result of USD 434,500.00 (€ 319,861.60).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juli 2020 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit Rural genre scene with The Prodigal Son von Abraham Bloemaert zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 18.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 18.812,50 (€ 20.983,91) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Abraham Bloemaert erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Mythological Scene, Perhaps Venus And Cupid im Januar 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 434.500,00 (€ 319.861,60).
