Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Roses and Baby's Breath on a Cloth-draped Ledge by Frans Mortelmans was auctioned at Christies in New York in April 2007. The price achieved of USD 11,400.00 (€ 8,345.53) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Frans Mortelmans - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Pink roses in a basket, which sold at auction in November 2009 for EUR 32,200.00.
