The work Portrait of a gentleman, three-quarter-length, seated, in a japonsche rock; and Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a blue- and gold-embroidered dress by Caspar Netscher was sold in the The Dr Anton C.R.Dreesmann Collection Old Master Pictures auction at Christies in London in April 2002. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 44,650.00 (€ 72,242.53), 49% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Caspar Netscher achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Woman Feeding A Parrot in June 2014 with an auction result of USD 5,093,000.00 (€ 3,720,233.75).

Die Arbeit Portrait of a gentleman, three-quarter-length, seated, in a japonsche rock; and Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a blue- and gold-embroidered dress von Caspar Netscher wurde im April 2002 in der Auktion The Dr Anton C.R.Dreesmann Collection Old Master Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 44.650,00 (€ 72.242,53) und damit 49% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Caspar Netscher erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Woman Feeding A Parrot im Juni 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.093.000,00 (€ 3.720.233,75).
