Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2007 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master Paintings Day Sale, which included the work A Subject Taken From Ancient History, Traditionally Thought To Represent The Death Of Seneca by Martin Drölling. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 16,985.38) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Martin Drölling achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Vue Des Jardins de La Villa Médicis in June 2006 with an auction result of EUR 258,400.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2007 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Subject Taken From Ancient History, Traditionally Thought To Represent The Death Of Seneca von Martin Drölling zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 16.985,38) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Martin Drölling erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Vue Des Jardins de La Villa Médicis im Juni 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 258.400,00.
