Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Venus And Adonis by Joachim Wtewael was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2009. The price achieved of USD 74,500.00 (€ 58,184.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joachim Wtewael achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mars and Venus Surprised by Vulcan in July 2012 with an auction result of GBP 4,633,250.00 (€ 5,901,515.18).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Venus And Adonis von Joachim Wtewael kam im Januar 2009 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 74.500,00 (€ 58.184,94) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joachim Wtewael erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mars and Venus Surprised by Vulcan im Juli 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.633.250,00 (€ 5.901.515,18).
