Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Dick Ket achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in December 2001. In the Twentieth Century Art including Belgian Art and auction, the work A still life with apples and a delftware bowl sold for EUR 9,400.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 3,600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dick Ket achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Stilleven met fluit: a still life with flute in November 2009 with an auction result of EUR 241,000.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Dick Ket erzielte im Dezember 2001 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Twentieth Century Art including Belgian Art and wurde die Arbeit A still life with apples and a delftware bowl für EUR 9.400,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 3.600,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Dick Ket erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Stilleven met fluit: a still life with flute im November 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 241.000,00.
