Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Portrait of a lady, seated, three-quarter-length, in a red satin dress with a blue mantle, a classical relief and a wooded landscape beyond by Hendrick Carré was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2005, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,131.41). Admittedly, works by Hendrick Carré have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A music party in an elegant interior, seen past a trompe l'oeil curtain in December 2001 with an auction result of GBP 5,875.00 (€ 9,598.94).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, seated, three-quarter-length, in a red satin dress with a blue mantle, a classical relief and a wooded landscape beyond von Hendrick Carré im April 2005 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.440,00 (€ 2.131,41) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Hendrick Carré auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A music party in an elegant interior, seen past a trompe l'oeil curtain im Dezember 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.875,00 (€ 9.598,94).
