Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2001 Christies in New York held the auction Important Old Master Paintings, which included the work Cows and Sheep in a Meadow, a Farmstead beyond by Paulus Potter. The price achieved of USD 149,000.00 (€ 160,077.35) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. 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
Im Januar 2001 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Important Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Cows and Sheep in a Meadow, a Farmstead beyond von Paulus Potter zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 149.000,00 (€ 160.077,35) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 120.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben worden. 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).
