In January 2001 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction PICTURES, WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS AT THE KUNSTFABRIEK, which included the work Shipping in a harbour by Derk Wiggers. The »bidding war« ended at NLG 2,937.50 (€ 1,285.39), 34% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Derk Wiggers - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A harbour scene, which sold at auction in January 2001 for NLG 6,462.50 (€ 2,827.86).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 34 % übertroffen
Im Januar 2001 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion PICTURES, WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS AT THE KUNSTFABRIEK durch, in der auch die Arbeit Shipping in a harbour von Derk Wiggers zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von NLG 2.937,50 (€ 1.285,39) und damit 34% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Derk Wiggers mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A harbour scene beobachtet, die im Januar 2001 für NLG 6.462,50 (€ 2.827,86) versteigert wurde.
