This artwork by Jan Fyt achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in January 2016. In the Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale auction, the work Still Life Of Flowers And An Overturned Jug sold for USD 75,000.00 (€ 69,239.29) - well above the upper estimate of USD 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Fyt - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Studies of the head of a wild boar, which sold at auction in December 2018 for GBP 236,750.00 (€ 263,760.50).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Jan Fyt erzielte im Januar 2016 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale wurde die Arbeit Still Life Of Flowers And An Overturned Jug für USD 75.000,00 (€ 69.239,29) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 30.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Fyt mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Studies of the head of a wild boar beobachtet, die im Dezember 2018 für GBP 236.750,00 (€ 263.760,50) versteigert wurde.
