Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Nativity by Jan Massys was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2013. The price achieved of GBP 23,750.00 (€ 27,138.51) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jan Massys achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Susanna And The Elders in April 2016 with an auction result of USD 1,205,000.00 (€ 1,053,229.61).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Nativity von Jan Massys kam im Juli 2013 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 23.750,00 (€ 27.138,51) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jan Massys erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Susanna And The Elders im April 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.205.000,00 (€ 1.053.229,61).
