Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2006 Christies in London held the auction Important Old Master Pictures Day Sale, which included the work Parrot tulips in an urn with a dragonfly and a butterfly on a stone ledge by Abraham Brueghel. The price achieved of GBP 30,000.00 (€ 44,523.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Admittedly, works by Abraham Brueghel have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by 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 in December 2005 with an auction result of GBP 276,800.00 (€ 401,759.70).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion Important Old Master Pictures Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Parrot tulips in an urn with a dragonfly and a butterfly on a stone ledge von Abraham Brueghel zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 30.000,00 (€ 44.523,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Abraham Brueghel auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen 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 im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 276.800,00 (€ 401.759,70).
