Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2002 Christies in London held the auction NINETEENTH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART, which included the work Two King Charles spaniels with a lute on a draped table by Bernard te Gempt. The price achieved of GBP 3,290.00 (€ 5,378.28) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 4,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bernard te Gempt - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Dutch A Good Catch, which sold at auction in April 2009 for EUR 13,250.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion NINETEENTH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit Two King Charles spaniels with a lute on a draped table von Bernard te Gempt zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.290,00 (€ 5.378,28) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 4.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Bernard te Gempt mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Dutch A Good Catch beobachtet, die im April 2009 für EUR 13.250,00 versteigert wurde.
