Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Esau Selling His Birthright To Jacob For A Pottage Of Lentils by Nicolas Tournier was sold in the Old Masters Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in December 2018. The price achieved of GBP 87,500.00 (€ 97,482.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 70,000.00 – 100,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nicolas Tournier - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Musician, Identified As Saint Genesius, Playing A Lute, which sold at auction in April 2008 for USD 409,000.00 (€ 262,718.40).
