Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2018 Christies in New York held the auction Old Masters Part I, which included the work The Virgin And Child by Jan Gossaert. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 3,000,000.00 – 5,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 3,372,500.00 (€ 2,793,191.98) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Gossaert - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Virgin And Child, which sold at auction in December 2015 for GBP 4,629,000.00 (€ 6,285,959.48).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Old Masters Part I durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Virgin And Child von Jan Gossaert zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 3.000.000,00 – 5.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 3.372.500,00 (€ 2.793.191,98) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Gossaert mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Virgin And Child beobachtet, die im Dezember 2015 für GBP 4.629.000,00 (€ 6.285.959,48) versteigert wurde.
