Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Marine by Hendrik Willem Mesdag was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2020. It changed hands for a price of USD 175,000.00 (€ 150,253.28) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hendrik Willem Mesdag - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Marée Bas, which sold at auction in April 2001 for NLG 895,000.00 (€ 410,788.26).
