Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Josephus Augustus Knip achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May 2015. In the The I.Q. van Regteren Altena Collection Part IV auction, the work Studies of birds: a golden oriole, a hoopoe, a magpie, a jay, two red-legged partridge and two green woodpeckers sold for EUR 4,750.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 1,800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Josephus Augustus Knip achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Maison de Buffon in the Jardin de Plantes, Paris in November 2012 with an auction result of EUR 75,400.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Josephus Augustus Knip erzielte im Mai 2015 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The I.Q. van Regteren Altena Collection Part IV wurde die Arbeit Studies of birds: a golden oriole, a hoopoe, a magpie, a jay, two red-legged partridge and two green woodpeckers für EUR 4.750,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 1.800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Josephus Augustus Knip erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Maison de Buffon in the Jardin de Plantes, Paris im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 75.400,00.
