A top price for Bartholomäus Bruyn the Elder - as previously expected

In December 2014 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & British Paintings Evening Sale, which included the work The Coronation Of The Virgin by Bartholomäus Bruyn the Elder. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 600,000.00 – 800,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 626,500.00 (€ 806,513.26) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Coronation Of The Virgin is the most expensive artwork by Bartholomäus Bruyn the Elder that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Im Dezember 2014 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Coronation Of The Virgin von Bartholomäus Bruyn the Elder zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600.000,00 – 800.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 626.500,00 (€ 806.513,26) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Coronation Of The Virgin das teuerste Kunstwerk von Bartholomäus Bruyn the Elder, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
