Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work A lemon, grapes and plums on a tazza, with oranges, grapes and a hazelnut with a snail and a butterfly at a feigned sculpted stone niche by Laurens Craen was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in May 2001. It achieved a price of NLG 199,750.00 (€ 96,224.93), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Laurens Craen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Still Life With A Lobster On A Pewter Plate, Lemons, Grapes, Apricots, Oysters And A Gold-Mounted Blue And White Porcelain Ewer, All On A Wooden Table Top With A Swallowtail Butterfly, which sold at auction in January 2011 for USD 506,500.00 (€ 369,303.68).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit A lemon, grapes and plums on a tazza, with oranges, grapes and a hazelnut with a snail and a butterfly at a feigned sculpted stone niche von Laurens Craen kam im Mai 2001 bei Christies in Amsterdam zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von NLG 199.750,00 (€ 96.224,93) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Für andere Arbeiten von Laurens Craen mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Still Life With A Lobster On A Pewter Plate, Lemons, Grapes, Apricots, Oysters And A Gold-Mounted Blue And White Porcelain Ewer, All On A Wooden Table Top With A Swallowtail Butterfly beobachtet, die im Januar 2011 für USD 506.500,00 (€ 369.303,68) versteigert wurde.
