Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2011 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master and British Paintings Day Sale, which included the work A Still Life With Grapes, Pears, A Peach And Roses In A Waanli Kraak Porcelain Bowl, With A Roemer And A Half-Peeled Lemon On A Partly Covered Table Top by Michiel Simons. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 26,946.93). Admittedly, works by Michiel Simons have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Tulips, carnations and other flowers in a vase, grapes and peaches in a porcelain bowl, with glasses of wine, a peeled lemon on a dish and other fruit on a partially draped stone ledge in January 2001 with an auction result of USD 116,000.00 (€ 124,623.98).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Dezember 2011 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master and British Paintings Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Still Life With Grapes, Pears, A Peach And Roses In A Waanli Kraak Porcelain Bowl, With A Roemer And A Half-Peeled Lemon On A Partly Covered Table Top von Michiel Simons zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 20.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 22.500,00 (€ 26.946,93) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Michiel Simons auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Tulips, carnations and other flowers in a vase, grapes and peaches in a porcelain bowl, with glasses of wine, a peeled lemon on a dish and other fruit on a partially draped stone ledge im Januar 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 116.000,00 (€ 124.623,98).
