Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Abraham Ortelius achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2002. In the THE DUTCH INTERIOR INCLUDING V.O.C. & FORMER DUTCH COLONIES auction, the work Hollandiae Atquorum North Holland...auctore Jacobo a Daventria. sold for EUR 573.60 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 220.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Abraham Ortelius achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Weltkarte und vier Erdteile: 1. Typus Orbis Terrarum; 2. Europae; 3. Asiae Nova Descriptio; 4. Africae Tabula Nova; 5. Americae Sive Novi Orbis Nova Descripto. 1587. Aus der lateinischen Textausgabe des 'Theatrum Orbis Terrarum' von 1592. in April last year with an auction result of CHF 8,125.00 (€ 7,929.91).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Abraham Ortelius erzielte im September 2002 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion THE DUTCH INTERIOR INCLUDING V.O.C. & FORMER DUTCH COLONIES wurde die Arbeit Hollandiae Atquorum North Holland...auctore Jacobo a Daventria. für EUR 573,60 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 220,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Abraham Ortelius erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Weltkarte und vier Erdteile: 1. Typus Orbis Terrarum; 2. Europae; 3. Asiae Nova Descriptio; 4. Africae Tabula Nova; 5. Americae Sive Novi Orbis Nova Descripto. 1587. Aus der lateinischen Textausgabe des 'Theatrum Orbis Terrarum' von 1592. im April letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von CHF 8.125,00 (€ 7.929,91).
