Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A grouse, kingfisher, and other game birds with a hare and a basket of fruit at the foot of a carved stone urn, an Italianate garden with a fountain beyond by Jan Weenix was auctioned at Christies in New York in June 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 70,000.00 – 100,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 75,000.00 (€ 67,240.45) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Weenix - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A sunflower, roses, parrot tulips, a carnation and other flowers in a glass vase on a partly draped marble table, which sold at auction in July 2000 for GBP 135,750.00 (€ 219,505.96).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A grouse, kingfisher, and other game birds with a hare and a basket of fruit at the foot of a carved stone urn, an Italianate garden with a fountain beyond von Jan Weenix kam im Juni 2015 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 70.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 75.000,00 (€ 67.240,45) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Jan Weenix mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A sunflower, roses, parrot tulips, a carnation and other flowers in a glass vase on a partly draped marble table beobachtet, die im Juli 2000 für GBP 135.750,00 (€ 219.505,96) versteigert wurde.
