Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Augustin Hirschvogel could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master Prints auction, the work River Landscape with two Buildings connected by a Bridge (Sch., B. 66; Holl. 39) changed hands for GBP 1,875.00 (€ 2,312.40) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Augustin Hirschvogel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Landscape with a Castle on a Rock at Centre in January 2021 with an auction result of GBP 32,500.00 (€ 36,752.99).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Augustin Hirschvogel konnte im Dezember 2012 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master Prints wechselte die Arbeit River Landscape with two Buildings connected by a Bridge (Sch., B. 66; Holl. 39) für GBP 1.875,00 (€ 2.312,40) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Augustin Hirschvogel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Landscape with a Castle on a Rock at Centre im Januar 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 32.500,00 (€ 36.752,99).
