Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sunset at Scheveningen by Hendrik Willem Mesdag was sold in the The former Kamerbeek Collection auction at Christies in Amsterdam in June 2017. The price achieved of EUR 37,500.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 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 Sunset at Scheveningen von Hendrik Willem Mesdag wurde im Juni 2017 in der Auktion The former Kamerbeek Collection bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 37.500,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 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).
