Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work An Urn, Garlanded With Flowers With Various Insects And Snails On A Stone Ledge by Herman Henstenburgh was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 18,750.00 (€ 16,607.62). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Herman Henstenburgh - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A King Bird Of Paradise (Cicinnurius Regius) And A Spiderhunter (Arachnothera), which sold at auction in January 2011 for USD 74,500.00 (€ 54,320.09).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit An Urn, Garlanded With Flowers With Various Insects And Snails On A Stone Ledge von Herman Henstenburgh im Januar 2015 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 18.750,00 (€ 16.607,62) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Herman Henstenburgh mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A King Bird Of Paradise (Cicinnurius Regius) And A Spiderhunter (Arachnothera) beobachtet, die im Januar 2011 für USD 74.500,00 (€ 54.320,09) versteigert wurde.
