This artwork by Matthias Stomer achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in June 2015. In the Master Paintings auction, the work An Old Woman Holding A Purse By Candlelight sold for USD 35,000.00 (€ 31,378.88) - well above the upper estimate of USD 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Matthias Stomer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Christ Disputing With The Doctors in January 2016 with an auction result of USD 2,650,000.00 (€ 2,446,454.95).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Matthias Stomer erzielte im Juni 2015 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Master Paintings wurde die Arbeit An Old Woman Holding A Purse By Candlelight für USD 35.000,00 (€ 31.378,88) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 20.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Matthias Stomer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Christ Disputing With The Doctors im Januar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.650.000,00 (€ 2.446.454,95).
