Upper estimate price exceeded by 72 %.
The work Venus, With Cupid, Seated On Clouds by Jan van der Straet was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2018. It achieved a price of GBP 13,750.00 (€ 15,416.77), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 72%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jan van der Straet achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Caccia All'Elefante"; An Extensive Landscape With An Elephant Hunt in December 2012 with an auction result of GBP 241,250.00 (€ 297,528.25).
