Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2009 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Old Master and 19th Century Art, which included the work The Burning of Troy by Dirck Verhaert. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of EUR 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of EUR 6,250.00 could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Dirck Verhaert have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in September 2008 the work A rocky river landscape with figures among ancient ruins; and A rocky coastal landscape with figures in boats and figures on a track near ancient ruins was auctioned for EUR 8,125.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2009 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Old Master and 19th Century Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Burning of Troy von Dirck Verhaert zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von EUR 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von EUR 6.250,00 konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Andere Arbeiten von Dirck Verhaert konnten bereits höhere Auktionspreise erzielen, so wurde im September 2008 die Arbeit A rocky river landscape with figures among ancient ruins; and A rocky coastal landscape with figures in boats and figures on a track near ancient ruins für EUR 8.125,00 versteigert.
