A top price for Johann Heinrich Keller - as previously expected

The work Mirtillo playing Blindman's buff with Amarillis; and The crowning of Mirtillo by Johann Heinrich Keller was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2001. The price achieved of USD 17,625.00 (€ 19,598.58) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Mirtillo playing Blindman's buff with Amarillis; and The crowning of Mirtillo is the most expensive artwork by Johann Heinrich Keller that we have observed at auctions so far.

Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Mirtillo playing Blindman's buff with Amarillis; and The crowning of Mirtillo das teuerste Kunstwerk von Johann Heinrich Keller, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
