In May 2018 Sothebys in New York held the auction Master Paintings, which included the work The Temptation Of Adam And Eve by Adriaen Isenbrant. The »bidding war« ended at USD 325,000.00 (€ 278,491.86), 63% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Adriaen Isenbrant have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Triptych: The Adoration Of The Magi in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 845,000.00 (€ 1,197,926.19).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 63 % übertroffen

Im Mai 2018 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Temptation Of Adam And Eve von Adriaen Isenbrant zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 325.000,00 (€ 278.491,86) und damit 63% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Adriaen Isenbrant auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Triptych: The Adoration Of The Magi im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 845.000,00 (€ 1.197.926,19).
