Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Recto: Prometheus bound Verso: Calligraphic exercises by Dirck de Quade van Ravesteyn was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January last year. The price achieved of USD 5,670.00 (€ 5,057.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dirck de Quade van Ravesteyn achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Mystic Marriage Of Saint Catherine Of Alexandria in June last year with an auction result of USD 75,600.00 (€ 72,213.20).
