Auction result well in line with expectations

In November 2015 Sothebys in London held the auction Evening Sale, which included the work Allegory Of Spring by Abraham Janssens II. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 43,750.00 (€ 62,315.38) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Abraham Janssens II - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Flora, which sold at auction in February 2018 for USD 175,000.00 (€ 143,313.41).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im November 2015 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Allegory Of Spring von Abraham Janssens II zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 43.750,00 (€ 62.315,38) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Abraham Janssens II mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Flora beobachtet, die im Februar 2018 für USD 175.000,00 (€ 143.313,41) versteigert wurde.
