Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Monkeys - A Paperweight by Barend Jordens was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in November 2006. The price achieved of EUR 1,200.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Barend Jordens - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nude, which sold at auction in November 2006 for EUR 3,600.00.

Die Arbeit Monkeys - A Paperweight von Barend Jordens kam im November 2006 bei Christies in Amsterdam zur Auktion.
