Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Maid And A Female Merchant At The Eenhoornsluis In Amsterdam by Michiel van Musscher was sold in the Important Old Master Paintings Including European Works of Art auction at Sothebys in New York in January 2008. The price achieved of USD 169,000.00 (€ 113,873.73) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 150,000.00 – 200,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michiel van Musscher - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An Interior With A Young Girl, Seated At A Table Covered With An Indian Carpet And Reading A Letter, Attended By A Negro Page, which sold at auction in January 2007 for USD 456,000.00 (€ 350,823.20).
