Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In June 2015 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Old Masters & 19th century Art - (including Dutch Impressionism), which included the work Mercury espying Herse and her sisters by David Teniers I. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 11,875.00 19% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Teniers I achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Meeting of Jacob and Laban in July 2016 with an auction result of GBP 254,500.00 (€ 302,401.06).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juni 2015 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Old Masters & 19th century Art - (including Dutch Impressionism) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Mercury espying Herse and her sisters von David Teniers I zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 11.875,00 und damit 19% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Teniers I erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Meeting of Jacob and Laban im Juli 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 254.500,00 (€ 302.401,06).
