Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Johann Zoffany could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in January 2017 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale auction, the work Portrait Of Benjamin Stillingfleet (1702-1771) changed hands for USD 11,875.00 (€ 11,001.48) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Johann Zoffany achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Garden At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick Taking Tea; And The Shakespeare Temple At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick in December 2011 with an auction result of GBP 6,761,250.00 (€ 8,097,551.93).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Johann Zoffany konnte im Januar 2017 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale wechselte die Arbeit Portrait Of Benjamin Stillingfleet (1702-1771) für USD 11.875,00 (€ 11.001,48) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Johann Zoffany erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Garden At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick Taking Tea; And The Shakespeare Temple At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick im Dezember 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.761.250,00 (€ 8.097.551,93).
