Auction result well in line with expectations
In January last year Sothebys in London held the auction Royal & Noble, which included the work Equestrian portrait of a gentleman by Paulus van Hillegaert I. The price achieved of GBP 2,520.00 (€ 3,020.54) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paulus van Hillegaert I achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Siege Of 'S-Hertogenbosch, Viewed From The Encampment At Vught in June last year with an auction result of USD 63,000.00 (€ 60,177.67).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Januar letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Royal & Noble durch, in der auch die Arbeit Equestrian portrait of a gentleman von Paulus van Hillegaert I zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.520,00 (€ 3.020,54) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Paulus van Hillegaert I erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Siege Of 'S-Hertogenbosch, Viewed From The Encampment At Vught im Juni letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 63.000,00 (€ 60.177,67).
