Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A Trompe-L'Oeil Still Life Of A Game Bird Suspended From A Nail by Jacobus Biltius 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 10,000.00 – 15,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 9,375.00 (€ 8,303.81). Admittedly, works by Jacobus Biltius have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Trompe L'Oeil Still Life With Two Quails, A Kingfisher, A Bird Net And A Whistle in December 2010 with an auction result of GBP 61,250.00 (€ 71,049.82).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A Trompe-L'Oeil Still Life Of A Game Bird Suspended From A Nail von Jacobus Biltius 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 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 9.375,00 (€ 8.303,81) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Jacobus Biltius auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Trompe L'Oeil Still Life With Two Quails, A Kingfisher, A Bird Net And A Whistle im Dezember 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 61.250,00 (€ 71.049,82).
