This artwork by Paulus Moreelse achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in November 2003. In the OLD MASTER PICTURES AND DRAWINGS auction, the work Vanitas: A young lady at a draped table before a black framed mirror sold for EUR 164,450.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Paulus Moreelse - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait Of A Gentleman, Standing Three-Quarter Length, Wearing A Black Suit With A Lace Collar; Portrait Of A Lady, Standing Three-Quarter Length, Wearing A Black Dress With A Lace Collar, Pearl Jewelry And Holding A Black Ostrich Fan, which sold at auction in January 2020 for USD 560,000.00 (€ 504,822.86).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Paulus Moreelse erzielte im November 2003 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion OLD MASTER PICTURES AND DRAWINGS wurde die Arbeit Vanitas: A young lady at a draped table before a black framed mirror für EUR 164.450,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 70.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Paulus Moreelse mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait Of A Gentleman, Standing Three-Quarter Length, Wearing A Black Suit With A Lace Collar; Portrait Of A Lady, Standing Three-Quarter Length, Wearing A Black Dress With A Lace Collar, Pearl Jewelry And Holding A Black Ostrich Fan beobachtet, die im Januar 2020 für USD 560.000,00 (€ 504.822,86) versteigert wurde.
