Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Gerard Soest could be acquired at Christies in New York in October 2000 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master Paintings auction, the work Portrait of Dame Ann Robinson, half-length, in a silver dress changed hands for USD 5,287.50 (€ 6,230.85) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Admittedly, works by Gerard Soest have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved 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

Dieses Kunstwerk von Gerard Soest konnte im Oktober 2000 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master Paintings wechselte die Arbeit Portrait of Dame Ann Robinson, half-length, in a silver dress für USD 5.287,50 (€ 6.230,85) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Gerard Soest auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen 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).
