Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Jan Knikker Sen. could be acquired at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2005 for an unexpectedly low price. In the PICTURES WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS auction, the work Sunset over a polder landscape with windmills changed hands for EUR 960.00 - missing the lower end of the estimate range of EUR 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Knikker Sen. - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A panoramic landscape with cows along a river, which sold at auction in February 2004 for EUR 2,629.00.

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Jan Knikker Sen. konnte im September 2005 bei Christies in Amsterdam für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion PICTURES WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS wechselte die Arbeit Sunset over a polder landscape with windmills für EUR 960,00 den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Knikker Sen. mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A panoramic landscape with cows along a river beobachtet, die im Februar 2004 für EUR 2.629,00 versteigert wurde.
