Auction result well in line with expectations
The work An Extensive River Landscape With Mercury And Argus by David Teniers I was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2011. The price achieved of GBP 37,250.00 (€ 44,612.14) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Admittedly, works by David Teniers I have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Meeting of Jacob and Laban in July 2016 with an auction result of GBP 254,500.00 (€ 302,401.06).
