Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Books, a globe and musical instruments on a draped table by Jan Vermeulen was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 25,106.54). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Vermeulen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vanitas Still Life: Skull With An Ivy Wreath, A Crown, Money Bags, An Hourglass And A Book Of Sheet Music, Pearls And Other Objects On A Stone Plinth, which sold at auction in February 2013 for USD 98,500.00 (€ 75,311.57).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Books, a globe and musical instruments on a draped table von Jan Vermeulen im Juli 2017 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 22.500,00 (€ 25.106,54) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Vermeulen mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Vanitas Still Life: Skull With An Ivy Wreath, A Crown, Money Bags, An Hourglass And A Book Of Sheet Music, Pearls And Other Objects On A Stone Plinth beobachtet, die im Februar 2013 für USD 98.500,00 (€ 75.311,57) versteigert wurde.
