Auction result well in line with expectations

In October 2012 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters & British Paintings, which included the work Portrait of A Lady, Full-Length, In A Green Dress With A Lace Collar; And Portrait of A Gentleman, Full-Length, In A Black Cape With A Lace Collar And A Black Feathered Hat by Jacob van der Merck. The price achieved of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,662.47) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jacob van der Merck achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An African Grey And An Orange Winged Amazon Parrot On A Perch With Citrus Fruit  in January 2014 with an auction result of USD 112,500.00 (€ 83,333.33).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Oktober 2012 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters & British Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of A Lady, Full-Length, In A Green Dress With A Lace Collar; And Portrait of A Gentleman, Full-Length, In A Black Cape With A Lace Collar And A Black Feathered Hat von Jacob van der Merck zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.662,47) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jacob van der Merck erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An African Grey And An Orange Winged Amazon Parrot On A Perch With Citrus Fruit  im Januar 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 112.500,00 (€ 83.333,33).
