Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March 2021 Sothebys in London held the auction Quality in Detail. The Juli and Andrew Wieg Collection, which included the work Peasants and flocks before a barn by Jan Baptist Kobell. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 7,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 7,560.00 (€ 8,881.05). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Baptist Kobell - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Shepherd Resting In A Cowshed, While His Flock Look On, which sold at auction in January 2019 for USD 40,000.00 (€ 34,922.30).
