Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master Paintings Evening Sale, which included the work Samson Grasping The Gates Of Gaza; Pluto by Maarten van Heemskerck. The price achieved of GBP 181,250.00 (€ 230,280.17) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 150,000.00 – 200,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Maarten van Heemskerck - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Triumph Of Tobias, which sold at auction in January 2015 for USD 905,000.00 (€ 801,594.33).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Samson Grasping The Gates Of Gaza; Pluto von Maarten van Heemskerck zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 181.250,00 (€ 230.280,17) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 150.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Maarten van Heemskerck mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Triumph Of Tobias beobachtet, die im Januar 2015 für USD 905.000,00 (€ 801.594,33) versteigert wurde.
