Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Cavalry Battle by Dirk Maas was sold in the Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in December 2012. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 10,020.38) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dirk Maas - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Thistles, Dock And Other Forest-Floor Plants In A Parkland Setting With Frogs, Butterflies And Snails, which sold at auction in July 2011 for GBP 32,450.00 (€ 37,241.23).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A Cavalry Battle von Dirk Maas wurde im Dezember 2012 in der Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 10.020,38) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Dirk Maas mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Thistles, Dock And Other Forest-Floor Plants In A Parkland Setting With Frogs, Butterflies And Snails beobachtet, die im Juli 2011 für GBP 32.450,00 (€ 37.241,23) versteigert wurde.
