Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2002 Christies in London held the auction Old Master Pictures, which included the work Portrait of Dirck van Beresteyn (1627-1653), three-quarter-length, in a velvet-lined black mantle and yellow gloves, holding a black hat with a feather by Gerrit Dou. The price achieved of GBP 47,800.00 (€ 77,339.15) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gerrit Dou achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An Elderly Woman, Seated By A Window At Her Spinning Wheel, Eating Porridge in January 2011 with an auction result of USD 5,346,500.00 (€ 3,898,286.55).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Dirck van Beresteyn (1627-1653), three-quarter-length, in a velvet-lined black mantle and yellow gloves, holding a black hat with a feather von Gerrit Dou zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 47.800,00 (€ 77.339,15) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gerrit Dou erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An Elderly Woman, Seated By A Window At Her Spinning Wheel, Eating Porridge im Januar 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.346.500,00 (€ 3.898.286,55).
