Auction result well in line with expectations

The work The Wise And Foolish Virgins by Hieronymus Francken II was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2014. The price achieved of USD 6,250.00 (€ 4,629.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hieronymus Francken II achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Collector'S Cabinet in July 2014 with an auction result of GBP 422,500.00 (€ 532,905.34).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit The Wise And Foolish Virgins von Hieronymus Francken II kam im Januar 2014 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 6.250,00 (€ 4.629,63) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hieronymus Francken II erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Collector'S Cabinet im Juli 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 422.500,00 (€ 532.905,34).
