Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Jan Vermeulen achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in May 2020. In the Old Masters including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection auction, the work Still Life With An Open Book sold for GBP 62,500.00 (€ 69,381.87) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 30,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Jan Vermeulen; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot 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 sold at auction in February 2013 with the realized price of USD 98,500.00 (€ 75,311.57).
