Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Elijah Ascending To Heaven In The Fiery Chariot by Herri met de Bles was worth USD 112,500.00 (€ 86,471.94) to a buyer in June 2013. This price was achieved in the auction Old Master Paintings at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 30,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Herri met de Bles achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A siege at Thérouanne, with an army led by Charles V encamped below the city in December 2009 with an auction result of GBP 1,049,250.00 (€ 1,183,590.90).
