Auction result misses estimated price range
In October 2000 a collector was able to acquire the work An extensive river landscape with an elegant couple halted on a track by Jan Looten for GBP 4,935.00 (€ 8,435.33). This price was achieved in the auction OLD MASTER PICTURES at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Looten - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Rocky Wooded River Landscape With Travelers Along A Path, which sold at auction in June 2008 for USD 53,125.00 (€ 33,734.44).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Oktober 2000 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit An extensive river landscape with an elegant couple halted on a track von Jan Looten für GBP 4.935,00 (€ 8.435,33) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion OLD MASTER PICTURES bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Looten mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Rocky Wooded River Landscape With Travelers Along A Path beobachtet, die im Juni 2008 für USD 53.125,00 (€ 33.734,44) versteigert wurde.
