A top price for Jan Lievens - as previously expected
The work A Tronie: Study Of The Head And Shoulders Of An Old Bearded Man, Wearing A Cap by Jan Lievens was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2010. The price achieved of GBP 2,505,250.00 (€ 3,012,280.86) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000,000.00 – 3,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A Tronie: Study Of The Head And Shoulders Of An Old Bearded Man, Wearing A Cap is the most expensive artwork by Jan Lievens that we have observed at auctions so far.
