A top price for Gerard Johan Staller
When the work Slapende hond: A dog asleep by Gerard Johan Staller was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in January 2001, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - NLG 3,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 13 times as high at NLG 39,950.00 (€ 17,481.34). This high result makes Slapende hond: A dog asleep the most expensive artwork by Gerard Johan Staller that we have observed at auctions so far.

Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – NLG 3.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit NLG 39.950,00 (€ 17.481,34) mehr als 13-mal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Slapende hond: A dog asleep zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Gerard Johan Staller, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
