Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Two Cows And A Goat By A Pollarded Tree In A Landscape With Other Cows In The Distance by Paulus Potter was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in June 2009. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 80,500.00 (€ 57,417.97) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paulus Potter achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Landscape with cattle and a woman cleaning a bucket by a stream in December 2020 with an auction result of GBP 1,582,500.00 (€ 1,767,793.54).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Two Cows And A Goat By A Pollarded Tree In A Landscape With Other Cows In The Distance von Paulus Potter kam im Juni 2009 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 80.500,00 (€ 57.417,97) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Paulus Potter erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Landscape with cattle and a woman cleaning a bucket by a stream im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.582.500,00 (€ 1.767.793,54).
