Adriaen Coorte (? Middelburg 1660?-after 1707)
Stawberries in a pot on a stone ledge with a butterfly
signed and dated 'Ad, Coorte, 1704' (lower centre)
oil on canvas
8 7/8 x 6 5/8 in. (22.5 x 16.9 cm.)
in an 18th Century Maratta frame

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Adriaen Coorte achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2003. In the Old Master Pictures auction, the work Stawberries in a pot on a stone ledge with a butterfly sold for GBP 206,850.00 (€ 270,366.90) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 80,000.00. 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).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Adriaen Coorte erzielte im Juli 2003 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Pictures wurde die Arbeit Stawberries in a pot on a stone ledge with a butterfly für GBP 206.850,00 (€ 270.366,90) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 80.000,00. 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).
