Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Georgius Jacobus Johannes van Os achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in June 2008. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Still life of roses, lilacs and other flowers on a marble ledge sold for USD 12,500.00 (€ 7,937.52) - well above the upper estimate of USD 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Georgius Jacobus Johannes van Os achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Roses, peonies, irises, hollyhocks, narcissi, blazing star, primulas, marigolds and other flowers with a Five-spot burnet moth in a vase with a river god carved in relief on a plinth with tulips, morning glory, clematis, an Orange-tip butterfly, a Re in December 2005 with an auction result of GBP 22
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Georgius Jacobus Johannes van Os erzielte im Juni 2008 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Still life of roses, lilacs and other flowers on a marble ledge für USD 12.500,00 (€ 7.937,52) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Georgius Jacobus Johannes van Os erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Roses, peonies, irises, hollyhocks, narcissi, blazing star, primulas, marigolds and other flowers with a Five-spot burnet moth in a vase with a river god carved in relief on a plinth with tulips, morning glory, clematis, an Orange-tip butterfly, a Re im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 220.800,00 (€ 320.478,84).
