Despite a disappointment, a good price for Marten van Valckenborch I

When the work An extensive river landscape with peasants haymaking, a view of Arenberg Castle beyond by Marten van Valckenborch I was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2003, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 120,000.00 – 180,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 117,250.00 (€ 166,069.26). Despite this disappointing result, An extensive river landscape with peasants haymaking, a view of Arenberg Castle beyond is the most expensive artwork by Marten van Valckenborch I that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Marten van Valckenborch I

Als die Arbeit An extensive river landscape with peasants haymaking, a view of Arenberg Castle beyond von Marten van Valckenborch I im Dezember 2003 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 120.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 117.250,00 (€ 166.069,26) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist An extensive river landscape with peasants haymaking, a view of Arenberg Castle beyond das teuerste Kunstwerk von Marten van Valckenborch I, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
