A Sorceress in a wood surrounded by Devils
oil on panel
13 x 12 5/8 in. (33 x 32.1 cm.)

Auction result well in line with expectations

In April 2013 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters & British Paintings, which included the work A Sorceress In A Wood Surrounded By Devils by Jan Jansz. Buesem. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 10,325.51) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Jansz. Buesem - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A couple standing by pots and pans in a stable, boors smoking and drinking at tables beyond, which sold at auction in May 2000 for USD 37,600.00 (€ 40,308.75).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im April 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters & British Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Sorceress In A Wood Surrounded By Devils von Jan Jansz. Buesem zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 8.750,00 (€ 10.325,51) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Jansz. Buesem mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A couple standing by pots and pans in a stable, boors smoking and drinking at tables beyond beobachtet, die im Mai 2000 für USD 37.600,00 (€ 40.308,75) versteigert wurde.
