A top price for Denys Calvaert
When the work The Holy Family With Saint John The Baptist And An Angel by Denys Calvaert was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 150,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 591,000.00 (€ 475,539.11). This high result makes The Holy Family With Saint John The Baptist And An Angel the most expensive artwork by Denys Calvaert that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Denys Calvaert
Als die Arbeit The Holy Family With Saint John The Baptist And An Angel von Denys Calvaert im Januar 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 150.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 591.000,00 (€ 475.539,11) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht The Holy Family With Saint John The Baptist And An Angel zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Denys Calvaert, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
