Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Portrait of Jan de Saint Gilles (1609-1664), half-length, in black by Govaert Flinck was auctioned at Bonhams in London in July this year. The price achieved of GBP 51,200.00 (€ 59,734.88) 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 Govaert Flinck achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An old man at a casement in April 2017 with an auction result of USD 10,327,500.00 (€ 9,479,118.86).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Portrait of Jan de Saint Gilles (1609-1664), half-length, in black von Govaert Flinck kam im Juli diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 51.200,00 (€ 59.734,88) 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 Govaert Flinck erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An old man at a casement im April 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 10.327.500,00 (€ 9.479.118,86).
