A top price for Johannes Moreelse - as previously expected
In October 2020 Christies in New York held the auction Old Masters, which included the work An old alchemist in his study by Johannes Moreelse. The price achieved of USD 118,750.00 (€ 101,957.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, An old alchemist in his study is the most expensive artwork by Johannes Moreelse that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Oktober 2020 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Old Masters durch, in der auch die Arbeit An old alchemist in his study von Johannes Moreelse zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 118.750,00 (€ 101.957,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist An old alchemist in his study das teuerste Kunstwerk von Johannes Moreelse, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
