Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Still Life Of A Watermelon, Cherries, Peaches, Apricots, Plums, Pomegranates And Figs, With Lilies, Roses, Morning Glory And Other Flowers On An Acanthus Stone Relief by Abraham Brueghel was sold in the Old Masters Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in July 2017. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 100,000.00 – 150,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 112,500.00 (€ 125,532.72) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Abraham Brueghel - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A watermelon, cherries, peaches, apricots, plums, pomegranate and figs with lilies, roses, morning glory and other flowers on an acanthus stone relief, a mountainous landscape beyond, which sold at auction in December 2005 for GBP 276,800.00 (€ 401,759.70).

Für andere Arbeiten von Abraham Brueghel mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A watermelon, cherries, peaches, apricots, plums, pomegranate and figs with lilies, roses, morning glory and other flowers on an acanthus stone relief, a mountainous landscape beyond beobachtet, die im Dezember 2005 für GBP 276.800,00 (€ 401
