Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Mary Magdalene Kneeling At The Foot Of The Cross by Jan Pynas was auctioned at Sothebys in London in September 2019, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 4,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 15,000.00 (€ 16,925.72). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Pynas - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A mountainous landscape with an arched bridge over a river, which sold at auction in July 2014 for GBP 37,500.00 (€ 47,299.29).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Mary Magdalene Kneeling At The Foot Of The Cross von Jan Pynas im September 2019 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 4.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 15.000,00 (€ 16.925,72) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Pynas mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A mountainous landscape with an arched bridge over a river beobachtet, die im Juli 2014 für GBP 37.500,00 (€ 47.299,29) versteigert wurde.
