Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2013 Christies in New York held the auction Old Master Paintings Part II, which included the work The Mussel Vendor by Jan Josef Horemans the Elder. The price achieved of USD 17,500.00 (€ 12,882.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Josef Horemans the Elder - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Four Seasons, which sold at auction in January 2007 for USD 60,000.00 (€ 46,160.95).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Januar 2013 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Old Master Paintings Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Mussel Vendor von Jan Josef Horemans the Elder zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 17.500,00 (€ 12.882,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Josef Horemans the Elder mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Four Seasons beobachtet, die im Januar 2007 für USD 60.000,00 (€ 46.160,95) versteigert wurde.
