Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2021 Sothebys in London held the auction Quality in Detail. The Juli and Andrew Wieg Collection, which included the work Still life of wild strawberries, peaches, figs, and other fruit on a ledge with a grey parrot by Barend van der Meer. The price achieved of GBP 23,940.00 (€ 28,123.33) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Barend van der Meer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Früchtestillleben mit einem Römer und Vögeln, which sold at auction in May 2018 for EUR 68,200.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2021 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Quality in Detail. The Juli and Andrew Wieg Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Still life of wild strawberries, peaches, figs, and other fruit on a ledge with a grey parrot von Barend van der Meer zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 23.940,00 (€ 28.123,33) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Barend van der Meer mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Früchtestillleben mit einem Römer und Vögeln beobachtet, die im Mai 2018 für EUR 68.200,00 versteigert wurde.
