A top price for Jean-Baptiste de Roy - as previously expected
The work Cattle on a river bank, drovers conversing beyond; and Cattle and sheep on a river bank, a farmstead, shepherd and traveller beyond by Jean-Baptiste de Roy was sold in the Old Master Pictures auction at Christies in London in April 2000. The price achieved of GBP 5,287.50 (€ 9,051.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Cattle on a river bank, drovers conversing beyond; and Cattle and sheep on a river bank, a farmstead, shepherd and traveller beyond is the most expensive artwork by Jean-Baptiste de Roy that we have observed at auctions so far.

Die Arbeit Cattle on a river bank, drovers conversing beyond; and Cattle and sheep on a river bank, a farmstead, shepherd and traveller beyond von Jean-Baptiste de Roy wurde im April 2000 in der Auktion Old Master Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.287,50 (€ 9.051,99) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Cattle on a river bank, drovers conversing beyond; and Cattle and sheep on a river bank, a farmstead, shepherd and traveller beyond das teuerste Kunstwerk von Jean-Baptiste de Roy, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
