JAN BOECKHORST (MÜNSTER 1604⁄05-1668 ANTWERP)
Head study of a young woman with a pearl earring
oil on canvas
17 x 13 ½ in. (43.2 x 34.4 cm.)

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Jan Boeckhorst achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December this year. In the Old Masters Part II: Paintings, Sculpture, Drawings and Watercolours auction, the work Head study of a young woman with a pearl earring sold for GBP 81,900.00 (€ 94,345.66) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 30,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Jan Boeckhorst; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Alexander The Great Crowning Roxana sold at auction in January 2020 with the realized price of USD 150,000.00 (€ 135,220.41).
