Jules Pierre van Biesbroeck (Belgian, 1873-1965)
The siren
signed 'JBiesbroeck' (lower left), with artist's label (on the reverse)
oil on board
111.5 x 54.5cm (43 7/8 x 21 7/16in).

Upper estimate price exceeded by 87 %.

This artwork by Jules-Pierre van Biesbroeck achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in September last year. In the 19th Century and British Impressionist Art auction, the work The siren sold for GBP 28,020.00 (€ 31,889.47) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jules-Pierre van Biesbroeck - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Mother of Algeria, which sold at auction in June last year for GBP 57,000.00 (€ 66,217.79).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 87 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Jules-Pierre van Biesbroeck erzielte im September letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 19th Century and British Impressionist Art wurde die Arbeit The siren für GBP 28.020,00 (€ 31.889,47) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Jules-Pierre van Biesbroeck mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Mother of Algeria beobachtet, die im Juni letzten Jahres für GBP 57.000,00 (€ 66.217,79) versteigert wurde.
