Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Still Life With A Butterfly, Apricots, Cherries, And A Chestnut by Adriaen Coorte was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2011. It changed hands for a price of USD 290,500.00 (€ 211,811.88) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 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).
