Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master Paintings Evening Sale, which included the work A Vanitas Still Life, With A Skull, An Hourglass, An Oil Lamp, A Conch Shell, A Closed Book, A Recorder, A Musical Score, Together With Some Scattered Ears Of Corn, All Upon A Stone Ledge by Adriaen Coorte. The price achieved of GBP 229,250.00 (€ 291,264.71) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Adriaen Coorte achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Three Peaches On A Stone Ledge, With A Red Admiral Butterfly in December 2014 with an auction result of GBP 3,442,500.00 (€ 4,431,639.12).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Vanitas Still Life, With A Skull, An Hourglass, An Oil Lamp, A Conch Shell, A Closed Book, A Recorder, A Musical Score, Together With Some Scattered Ears Of Corn, All Upon A Stone Ledge von Adriaen Coorte zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 229.250,00 (€ 291.264,71) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Adriaen Coorte erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Three Peaches On A Stone Ledge, With A Red Admiral Butterfly im Dezember 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.442.500,00 (€ 4.431.639,12).
