Auction result misses estimated price range
In July 2014 a collector was able to acquire the work Virgin And Child Beneath A Vine by Jan Sanders van Hemessen for GBP 782,500.00 (€ 986,978.53). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master & British Paintings Evening Sale at Sothebys in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 800,000.00 – 1,200,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Jan Sanders van Hemessen have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Double Portrait Of A Husband And Wife, Half-Length, Seated At A Table, Playing Tables in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 10,036,000.00 (€ 9,001,704.19).

Im Juli 2014 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Virgin And Child Beneath A Vine von Jan Sanders van Hemessen für GBP 782.500,00 (€ 986.978,53) erwerben.
