Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Boats On The North Sea by Hendrik Willem Mesdag was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2016. The price achieved of USD 43,750.00 (€ 40,389.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hendrik Willem Mesdag achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Marée Bas in April 2001 with an auction result of NLG 895,000.00 (€ 410,788.26).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Boats On The North Sea von Hendrik Willem Mesdag kam im Januar 2016 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 43.750,00 (€ 40.389,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hendrik Willem Mesdag erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Marée Bas im April 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von NLG 895.000,00 (€ 410.788,26).
