Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Portrait of a lady, half-length, in a black dress with a ruff, gold chains around her neck and waist, lace headdress and a jewel in her hair by Jan Anthonisz. van Ravesteyn was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2011. The price achieved of GBP 32,450.00 (€ 37,697.88) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 25,000.00 – 40,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jan Anthonisz. van Ravesteyn achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of a gentleman, three-quarter-length, in a black coat and lace collar; and Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a black dress with gold trim and a lace collar and headdress in April 2007 with an auction result of USD 712,000.00 (€ 521,229.87).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, half-length, in a black dress with a ruff, gold chains around her neck and waist, lace headdress and a jewel in her hair von Jan Anthonisz. van Ravesteyn kam im September 2011 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 32.450,00 (€ 37.697,88) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 25.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jan Anthonisz. van Ravesteyn erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of a gentleman, three-quarter-length, in a black coat and lace collar; and Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a black dress with gold trim and a lace collar and headdress im April 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 712.000,00 (€ 521.229,87).
