Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'Tronie' Of An Old Man, Possibly A Jewish Scholar by Govaert Flinck was sold in the Master Paintings auction at Sothebys in New York in June 2017. The price achieved of USD 287,500.00 (€ 251,949.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 250,000.00 – 350,000.00. 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 'Tronie' Of An Old Man, Possibly A Jewish Scholar von Govaert Flinck wurde im Juni 2017 in der Auktion Master Paintings bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 287.500,00 (€ 251.949,87) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 250.000,00 – 350.000,00 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).
