Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale, which included the work Forest Floor Still Life With Various Flowers, Butterflies, And Lizards, All Before A Landscape by Matthias Withoos. The price achieved of USD 68,750.00 (€ 61,976.02) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Matthias Withoos - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape With Drugged Birds In The Flower And Underbrush Of The Wood, which sold at auction in May 2021 for USD 151,200.00 (€ 123,995.41).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Januar 2020 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Forest Floor Still Life With Various Flowers, Butterflies, And Lizards, All Before A Landscape von Matthias Withoos zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 68.750,00 (€ 61.976,02) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Matthias Withoos mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Landscape With Drugged Birds In The Flower And Underbrush Of The Wood beobachtet, die im Mai 2021 für USD 151.200,00 (€ 123.995,41) versteigert wurde.
