Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work The Flight Into Egypt by Adriaen Isenbrant was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 200,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 759,000.00 (€ 650,385.60). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Adriaen Isenbrant; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot A Triptych: The Adoration Of The Magi sold at auction in July 2015 with the realized price of GBP 845,000.00 (€ 1,197,926.19).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit The Flight Into Egypt von Adriaen Isenbrant im Mai 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 200.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 759.000,00 (€ 650.385,60) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Adriaen Isenbrant; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit A Triptych: The Adoration Of The Magi im Juli 2015 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 845.000,00 (€ 1.197.926,19).
