A top price for Abraham Janssens van Nuyssen I - as previously expected

In January 2001 Christies in New York held the auction Important Old Master Paintings, which included the work Lascivia by Abraham Janssens van Nuyssen I. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 150,000.00 – 250,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 171,000.00 (€ 183,712.94) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Lascivia is the most expensive artwork by Abraham Janssens van Nuyssen I that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Im Januar 2001 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Important Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Lascivia von Abraham Janssens van Nuyssen I zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 150.000,00 – 250.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 171.000,00 (€ 183.712,94) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Lascivia das teuerste Kunstwerk von Abraham Janssens van Nuyssen I, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
