Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2015 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Old Masters & 19th century Art - (including Dutch Impressionism), which included the work Two roosters fighting and a dog watching, a park landscape beyond by Dirk Valkenburg. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of EUR 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of EUR 32,500.00 could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Dirk Valkenburg have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Eurasian eagle-owl with other birds in a landscape in January 2021 with an auction result of USD 264,600.00 (€ 218,046.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2015 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Old Masters & 19th century Art - (including Dutch Impressionism) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Two roosters fighting and a dog watching, a park landscape beyond von Dirk Valkenburg zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von EUR 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von EUR 32.500,00 konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Dirk Valkenburg auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Eurasian eagle-owl with other birds in a landscape im Januar 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 264.600,00 (€ 218.046,97).
