Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Jacob recognising the blood-stained coat of Joseph by Leonaert Bramer was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,400.00 – 3,400.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,890.00 (€ 2,220.26). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Leonaert Bramer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Circumcision in December 2004 with an auction result of GBP 41,825.00 (€ 59,193.90).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Jacob recognising the blood-stained coat of Joseph von Leonaert Bramer im März 2021 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.400,00 – 3.400,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.890,00 (€ 2.220,26) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Leonaert Bramer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Circumcision im Dezember 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 41.825,00 (€ 59.193,90).
