Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Peter Brueghel II could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in May last year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Master Paintings auction, the work The Return from the Inn changed hands for USD 1,865,000.00 (€ 1,737,955.46) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 2,000,000.00 – 3,000,000.00. Admittedly, works by Peter Brueghel II have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Battle between Carnival and Lent in December 2011 with an auction result of GBP 6,873,250.00 (€ 8,231,687.76).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Peter Brueghel II konnte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Master Paintings wechselte die Arbeit The Return from the Inn für USD 1.865.000,00 (€ 1.737.955,46) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000.000,00 – 3.000.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Peter Brueghel II auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Battle between Carnival and Lent im Dezember 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.873.250,00 (€ 8.231.687,76).
