Auction result well in line with expectations

The work An Elderly Man With Spectacles Reading A Letter - Allegory Of Sight(?) by David Teniers II was auctioned at Christies in New York in January this year. It changed hands for a price of USD 239,400.00 (€ 220,482.59) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 150,000.00 – 250,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Teniers II achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Wine Harvest |《葡萄酒收穫》 in December 2020 with an auction result of GBP 3,645,000.00 (€ 4,071,789.86).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 239.400,00 (€ 220.482,59) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 150.000,00 – 250.000,00.
