Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work A Village Scene With Travellers By A Windmill by Joseph van Bredael was auctioned at Sothebys in London in April 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 15,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 52,920.00 (€ 60,873.40). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joseph van Bredael - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Paysage d'hiver à la trappe aux oiseaux, d'après Pieter Brueghel, which sold at auction in November last year for EUR 170,560.00.
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit A Village Scene With Travellers By A Windmill von Joseph van Bredael im April 2021 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 15.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 52.920,00 (€ 60.873,40) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Joseph van Bredael mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Paysage d'hiver à la trappe aux oiseaux, d'après Pieter Brueghel beobachtet, die im November letzten Jahres für EUR 170.560,00 versteigert wurde.
