Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2003 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Pictures, Watercolours and Drawings, which included the work The harbour of Antwerp by Alfons Vermeir. The price achieved of EUR 573.60 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 500.00 – 700.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alfons Vermeir - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The harbour of Antwerp, which sold at auction in July 2000 for NLG 3,510.60 (€ 1,543.13).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2003 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Pictures, Watercolours and Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The harbour of Antwerp von Alfons Vermeir zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 573,60 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 500,00 – 700,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Alfons Vermeir mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The harbour of Antwerp beobachtet, die im Juli 2000 für NLG 3.510,60 (€ 1.543,13) versteigert wurde.
