In May 2011 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Old Masters and 19th Century Art, which included the work The temple of Athena at Paestum by Anton Sminck Pitloo. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 21,250.00 33% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Anton Sminck Pitloo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Peasants And Animals In A Landscape In Naples, which sold at auction in January 2007 for USD 102,000.00 (€ 78,473.61).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2011 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Old Masters and 19th Century Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The temple of Athena at Paestum von Anton Sminck Pitloo zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 21.250,00 und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Anton Sminck Pitloo mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Peasants And Animals In A Landscape In Naples beobachtet, die im Januar 2007 für USD 102.000,00 (€ 78.473,61) versteigert wurde.
