Dance of Death, Lot 45
23. Oct - 1. Nov 2023
Estimate: 1.000 - 1.500 USD
Price realised: 3.072 USD
Property from the Collection of Richard Harris
Matthaus (Master MZ) Zasinger (active c. 1500)
Memento Mori (Vanitas) (Bartsch 17, Lehrs 20), c. 1500
Engraving on laid paper, trimmed to the platemark, framed.
sheet 7 3/16 x 5 1/8in (18.3 x 13cm)
Richard Leendertz (Lugt 1708)

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Master MZ achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts in November this year. In the Dance of Death auction, the work Memento Mori (Vanitas) sold for USD 3,072.00 (€ 2,816.28) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Master MZ achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Ball (The Palace Of Duke Albert Iv At Munich) in December 2015 with an auction result of GBP 21,250.00 (€ 28,856.48).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Master MZ erzielte im November diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Dance of Death wurde die Arbeit Memento Mori (Vanitas) für USD 3.072,00 (€ 2.816,28) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Master MZ erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Ball (The Palace Of Duke Albert Iv At Munich) im Dezember 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 21.250,00 (€ 28.856,48).
