Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A 'Tronie' Of An Oriental Gentleman by Gerrit Dou was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2014. The price achieved of GBP 47,500.00 (€ 59,912.43) 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
Die Arbeit A 'Tronie' Of An Oriental Gentleman von Gerrit Dou kam im Juli 2014 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 47.500,00 (€ 59.912,43) 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).
