Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Tower Of Babel by Jacob van der Ulft was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2011. The price achieved of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 28,691.24) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jacob van der Ulft - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work View of Tivoli from the north, which sold at auction in July 2014 for GBP 50,000.00 (€ 63,065.72).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Tower Of Babel von Jacob van der Ulft kam im Juli 2011 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 28.691,24) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Jacob van der Ulft mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit View of Tivoli from the north beobachtet, die im Juli 2014 für GBP 50.000,00 (€ 63.065,72) versteigert wurde.
