Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Cornelis Schut could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in January last year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master and British Works on Paper auction, the work The beheading of St. John the Baptist changed hands for USD 1,134.00 (€ 1,011.42) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Cornelis Schut achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Abduction Of Europa in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 352,800.00 (€ 302,910.62).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Cornelis Schut konnte im Januar letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master and British Works on Paper wechselte die Arbeit The beheading of St. John the Baptist für USD 1.134,00 (€ 1.011,42) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Cornelis Schut erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Abduction Of Europa im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 352.800,00 (€ 302.910,62).
