Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ferdinand Bol could be acquired at Christies in New York in June 2015 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master Paintings auction, the work Portrait of a lady, traditionally identified as Maria Louise Gonzaga (1611-1667), Queen of Poland, half-length, in a red dress and gold-embroidered shawl changed hands for USD 149,000.00 (€ 133,584.36) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 150,000.00 – 250,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ferdinand Bol achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of A Boy, Said To Be The Artist'S Son, Aged 8 in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 5,189,000.00 (€ 7,356,259.16).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ferdinand Bol konnte im Juni 2015 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master Paintings wechselte die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, traditionally identified as Maria Louise Gonzaga (1611-1667), Queen of Poland, half-length, in a red dress and gold-embroidered shawl für USD 149.000,00 (€ 133.584,36) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 150.000,00 – 250.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ferdinand Bol erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of A Boy, Said To Be The Artist'S Son, Aged 8 im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.189.000,00 (€ 7.356.259,16).
