Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Michiel Sweerts could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in January 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture auction, the work Artists Resting By A Fountain changed hands for USD 50,000.00 (€ 38,305.37) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Michiel Sweerts achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Artist’s Studio with a Seamstress in July this year with an auction result of GBP 12,615,000.00 (€ 14,717,881.58).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Michiel Sweerts konnte im Januar 2012 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture wechselte die Arbeit Artists Resting By A Fountain für USD 50.000,00 (€ 38.305,37) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Michiel Sweerts erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Artist’s Studio with a Seamstress im Juli diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.615.000,00 (€ 14.717.881,58).
