Upper estimate price exceeded by 94 %.
This artwork by Balthasar Beschey achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2003. In the Pictures, Watercolours and Drawings auction, the work A hermit reading by a tree, a landscape beyond sold for EUR 7,767.50 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 4,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Balthasar Beschey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A River Landscape With Wagons And Townsfolk On A Path And Boats; And An Extensive Landscape With A Windmill And Figures, A Canal Beyond in July 2005 with an auction result of GBP 131,200.00 (€ 190,304.36).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 94 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Balthasar Beschey erzielte im September 2003 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Pictures, Watercolours and Drawings wurde die Arbeit A hermit reading by a tree, a landscape beyond für EUR 7.767,50 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 4.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Balthasar Beschey erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A River Landscape With Wagons And Townsfolk On A Path And Boats; And An Extensive Landscape With A Windmill And Figures, A Canal Beyond im Juli 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 131.200,00 (€ 190.304,36).
