Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work A Nymph At Her Bath by Carle van Loo was auctioned at Sothebys in London in April 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 12,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at GBP 52,500.00 (€ 60,392.97). Admittedly, works by Carle van Loo have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Venus requesting Vulcan to make arms for Aeneas in January 2000 with an auction result of USD 277,500.00 (€ 284,411.19).
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit A Nymph At Her Bath von Carle van Loo im April 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 12.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 52.500,00 (€ 60.392,97) mehr als viermal so hoch. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Carle van Loo auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Venus requesting Vulcan to make arms for Aeneas im Januar 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 277.500,00 (€ 284.411,19).
