Upper estimate price exceeded by 76 %.
This artwork by Martin Schongauer achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in December 2020. In the Old Master Prints including Property from the Collection of the Late Walter L. Strauss auction, the work St Sebastian (large) (Bartsch 59; Lehrs, Schmitt, Stogdon (Hollstein) 65) sold for GBP 17,640.00 (€ 19,705.45) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Martin Schongauer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Death of the Virgin in January 2019 with an auction result of USD 492,500.00 (€ 429,980.79).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Martin Schongauer erzielte im Dezember 2020 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Prints including Property from the Collection of the Late Walter L. Strauss wurde die Arbeit St Sebastian (large) (Bartsch 59; Lehrs, Schmitt, Stogdon (Hollstein) 65) für GBP 17.640,00 (€ 19.705,45) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 10.000,00.

Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Death of the Virgin im Januar 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 492.500,00 (€ 429.980,79).
