Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Barthel Beham could be acquired at Christies in New York in January 2019 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master Prints auction, the work Emperor Ferdinand I changed hands for USD 3,750.00 (€ 3,273.97) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Barthel Beham achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Ludwig X, Duke Of Bavaria in July 2016 with an auction result of GBP 317,000.00 (€ 376,664.58).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Barthel Beham konnte im Januar 2019 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master Prints wechselte die Arbeit Emperor Ferdinand I für USD 3.750,00 (€ 3.273,97) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Barthel Beham erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of Ludwig X, Duke Of Bavaria im Juli 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 317.000,00 (€ 376.664,58).
