Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Portrait Of A Lady, Half Length, Wearing A Pink Dress With A Blue Wrap by Arnold Boonen was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2010, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 15,000.00 (€ 10,814.71). Admittedly, works by Arnold Boonen 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 candlelit interior with a young man seated at a table, lighting his pipe in May 2007 with an auction result of EUR 108,000.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of A Lady, Half Length, Wearing A Pink Dress With A Blue Wrap von Arnold Boonen im Januar 2010 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 15.000,00 (€ 10.814,71) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Arnold Boonen auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A candlelit interior with a young man seated at a table, lighting his pipe im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 108.000,00.
