Sold at the lower estimate price

The work An elegant company making music by Pieter Codde was sold in the Old Masters auction at Christies in New York in October 2017. The result of USD 40,000.00 (€ 34,340.66) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pieter Codde achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Family Portrait With Husband, Wife And Two Daughters Seated At A Table Draped In Red Cloth, A Son Playing A Lute, Another Son Holding A Fiddle Beside A Lady Playing The Virginal, A Maidservant Pouring Wine By The Window, And A Dog Resting On The Floor in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 245,000.00 (€ 347

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Die Arbeit An elegant company making music von Pieter Codde wurde im Oktober 2017 in der Auktion Old Masters bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 40.000,00 (€ 34.340,66) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pieter Codde erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Family Portrait With Husband, Wife And Two Daughters Seated At A Table Draped In Red Cloth, A Son Playing A Lute, Another Son Holding A Fiddle Beside A Lady Playing The Virginal, A Maidservant Pouring Wine By The Window, And A Dog Resting On The Floor im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 245.000,00 (€ 347.327,71).
