Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Jan Theodor de Bry achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in September 2008. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Pair of Cacti sold for GBP 475.00 (€ 600.59) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jan Theodor de Bry achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Florilegium renovatum et auctum, Frankfurt, 1641, coloured plates, calf gilt in May last year with an auction result of GBP 107,100.00 (€ 125,992.95).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Jan Theodor de Bry erzielte im September 2008 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Pair of Cacti für GBP 475,00 (€ 600,59) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 200,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jan Theodor de Bry erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Florilegium renovatum et auctum, Frankfurt, 1641, coloured plates, calf gilt im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 107.100,00 (€ 125.992,95).
