Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March 2013 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Nineteen to Now, which included the work Marktfiguren, Java by Gerard Pieter Adolfs. Here, the upper estimate of EUR 7,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for EUR 7,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gerard Pieter Adolfs - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Beeldhouwer Bali (Balinese sculptor), which sold at auction in October 2004 for HKD 262,900.00 (€ 26,483.89).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im März 2013 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Nineteen to Now durch, in der auch die Arbeit Marktfiguren, Java von Gerard Pieter Adolfs zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von EUR 7.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für EUR 7.500,00 einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Gerard Pieter Adolfs mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Beeldhouwer Bali (Balinese sculptor) beobachtet, die im Oktober 2004 für HKD 262.900,00 (€ 26.483,89) versteigert wurde.
