A top price for Master I. B.

When the work Saturn, from: The Seven Planets by Master I. B. was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 700.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,461.70). This high result makes Saturn, from: The Seven Planets the most expensive artwork by Master I. B. that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Master I. B.

Als die Arbeit Saturn, from: The Seven Planets von Master I. B. im Juli 2020 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 700,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.461,70) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Saturn, from: The Seven Planets zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Master I. B., das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
