A top price for Jean-Michel Picart - as previously expected
In January 2008 Sothebys in New York held the auction Important Old Master Paintings Including European Works of Art, which included the work A Still Life Of A Basket Of Flowers And A Mound Of Fruit On A Sculpted Stone Table, Partly Covered With A Blue Velvet, Gold-And-Silver-Fringed Cloth With Drapery And A Stone Column In The Background by Jean-Michel Picart. The price achieved of USD 601,000.00 (€ 404,959.23) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 500,000.00 – 700,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A Still Life Of A Basket Of Flowers And A Mound Of Fruit On A Sculpted Stone Table, Partly Covered With A Blue Velvet, Gold-And-Silver-Fringed Cloth With Drapery And A Stone Column In The Background is the most expensive artwork by Jean-Michel Picart that we have observed at auctions so far.

Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 601.000,00 (€ 404.959,23) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 500.000,00 – 700.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist A Still Life Of A Basket Of Flowers And A Mound Of Fruit On A Sculpted Stone Table, Partly Covered With A Blue Velvet, Gold-And-Silver-Fringed Cloth With Drapery And A Stone Column In The Background das teuerste Kunstwerk von Jean-Michel Picart, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
