A top price for Marten van Cleve I
When the work An Outdoor Wedding Dance by Marten van Cleve I was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 150,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at GBP 1,061,000.00 (€ 1,260,697.53). This high result makes An Outdoor Wedding Dance the most expensive artwork by Marten van Cleve I that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Marten van Cleve I
Als die Arbeit An Outdoor Wedding Dance von Marten van Cleve I im Juli 2016 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 150.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 1.061.000,00 (€ 1.260.697,53) mehr als siebenmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht An Outdoor Wedding Dance zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Marten van Cleve I, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
