Despite a disappointment, a good price for Jacob Ignatius Roore
When the work Ajax And Achilles by Jacob Ignatius Roore was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2007, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 4,800.00 (€ 3,692.88). Despite this disappointing result, Ajax And Achilles is the most expensive artwork by Jacob Ignatius Roore that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Jacob Ignatius Roore
Als die Arbeit Ajax And Achilles von Jacob Ignatius Roore im Januar 2007 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 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 4.800,00 (€ 3.692,88) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Ajax And Achilles das teuerste Kunstwerk von Jacob Ignatius Roore, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
