Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Portrait Of A Girl, Full-Length, Holding A Breadbun And Playing With A Dog by Bartholomeus van der Helst was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 38,985.76). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bartholomeus van der Helst achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Sophia Coymans (1636-1714), three-quarter-length, holding a twig with an orange, before a landscape in July this year with an auction result of GBP 504,000.00 (€ 588,015.25).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of A Girl, Full-Length, Holding A Breadbun And Playing With A Dog von Bartholomeus van der Helst im Juli 2015 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 27.500,00 (€ 38.985,76) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bartholomeus van der Helst erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Sophia Coymans (1636-1714), three-quarter-length, holding a twig with an orange, before a landscape im Juli diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 504.000,00 (€ 588.015,25).
