Auction result well in line with expectations

In May 2006 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Old Master Pictures, which included the work Elegant Company On Horseback By A Fountain In A Wooded Landscape by Jan van der Bent. The price achieved of EUR 10,800.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan van der Bent - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A capriccio of a Mediterranean harbour with elegant travellers, a moor and an oriental merchants, and other figues, which sold at auction in July 2000 for GBP 18,800.00 (€ 30,399.35).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai 2006 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Old Master Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Elegant Company On Horseback By A Fountain In A Wooded Landscape von Jan van der Bent zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 10.800,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan van der Bent mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A capriccio of a Mediterranean harbour with elegant travellers, a moor and an oriental merchants, and other figues beobachtet, die im Juli 2000 für GBP 18.800,00 (€ 30.399,35) versteigert wurde.
