This artwork by Adriaen Coorte achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in April 2002. In the The Dr Anton C.R.Dreesmann Collection Old Master Pictures auction, the work A still life of shells on a marble ledge sold for GBP 685,750.00 (€ 1,109,525.52) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 300,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adriaen Coorte - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Three Peaches On A Stone Ledge, With A Red Admiral Butterfly, which sold at auction in December 2014 for GBP 3,442,500.00 (€ 4,431,639.12).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Adriaen Coorte erzielte im April 2002 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Dr Anton C.R.Dreesmann Collection Old Master Pictures wurde die Arbeit A still life of shells on a marble ledge für GBP 685.750,00 (€ 1.109.525,52) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 300.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Adriaen Coorte mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Three Peaches On A Stone Ledge, With A Red Admiral Butterfly beobachtet, die im Dezember 2014 für GBP 3.442.500,00 (€ 4.431.639,12) versteigert wurde.
