Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Seated Monkey by Johan Altorf was sold in the 19TH AND 20TH CENTURY SCULPTURE auction at Christies in Amsterdam in November 2005. The price achieved of EUR 1,800.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Johan Altorf achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An owl in June 2000 with an auction result of NLG 222,338.00 (€ 94,875.08).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Seated Monkey von Johan Altorf wurde im November 2005 in der Auktion 19TH AND 20TH CENTURY SCULPTURE bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 1.800,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Johan Altorf erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An owl im Juni 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von NLG 222.338,00 (€ 94.875,08).
