Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Flemish cathedral with beguines and elegant visitors by Dirck van Delen was sold in the Master Paintings Part II auction at Sothebys in New York in January last year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 40,320.00 (€ 35,961.47) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dirck van Delen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An architectural capriccio with Jephthah and his daughter in April 2017 with an auction result of USD 667,500.00 (€ 612,666.36).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Flemish cathedral with beguines and elegant visitors von Dirck van Delen wurde im Januar letzten Jahres in der Auktion Master Paintings Part II bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 40.320,00 (€ 35.961,47) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Dirck van Delen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An architectural capriccio with Jephthah and his daughter im April 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 667.500,00 (€ 612.666,36).
