In December 2001 Christies in London held the auction Old Master Pictures, which included the work Portrait of Gudula de Kies van Wissen, née van der Wielen (1650-1680), aged 21, half-length, in a black dress with a lace collar and white sleeves with black ribbons by Jan de Braij. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 41,125.00 (€ 67,192.55), 37% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan de Braij - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Violin Player Accompanying Two Young Singers, which sold at auction in July 2015 for GBP 125,000.00 (€ 177,208.02).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Gudula de Kies van Wissen, née van der Wielen (1650-1680), aged 21, half-length, in a black dress with a lace collar and white sleeves with black ribbons von Jan de Braij zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 41.125,00 (€ 67.192,55) und damit 37% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan de Braij mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Violin Player Accompanying Two Young Singers beobachtet, die im Juli 2015 für GBP 125.000,00 (€ 177.208,02) versteigert wurde.
