Auction result misses estimated price range
In July this year a collector was able to acquire the work Portrait of Augustine Earle (d. 1654), bust-length, in a feigned oval by Gerard Soest for GBP 756.00 (€ 882.02). This price was achieved in the auction Old Masters Part II at Christies and was even below the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 8,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gerard Soest achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of a boy from the Ashley-Cooper family, half-length, wearing a blue wrap and a white shirt with a dog in a landscape in December 2018 with an auction result of GBP 40,000.00 (€ 44,563.55).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juli diesen Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Portrait of Augustine Earle (d. 1654), bust-length, in a feigned oval von Gerard Soest für GBP 756,00 (€ 882,02) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Masters Part II bei Christies erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gerard Soest erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of a boy from the Ashley-Cooper family, half-length, wearing a blue wrap and a white shirt with a dog in a landscape im Dezember 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 40.000,00 (€ 44.563,55).
