A top price for Cornelis van der Voort

In July 2016 Christies in London held the auction Old Master and British Paintings Evening Sale, which included the work Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a black vlieger brocade gown, with an elongated embroidered stomacher, lace-trimmed cuffs and a cartwheel ruff trimmed with reticella lace by Cornelis van der Voort. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 242,500.00 (€ 288,142.46), 62% above the upper estimate. This high result makes Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a black vlieger brocade gown, with an elongated embroidered stomacher, lace-trimmed cuffs and a cartwheel ruff trimmed with reticella lace the most expensive artwork by Cornelis van der Voort that we have observed at auctions so far.

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 242.500,00 (€ 288.142,46) und damit 62% über dem oberen Schätzpreis.
