Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Interior With An Elegant Couple Playing Music by Pieter de Hooch was sold in the Master Paintings auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 32,500.00 (€ 29,150.60) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pieter de Hooch achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Interior With A Child Feeding A Parrot in January 2012 with an auction result of USD 3,666,500.00 (€ 2,808,932.81).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Interior With An Elegant Couple Playing Music von Pieter de Hooch wurde im Mai 2019 in der Auktion Master Paintings bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 32.500,00 (€ 29.150,60) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pieter de Hooch erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Interior With A Child Feeding A Parrot im Januar 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.666.500,00 (€ 2.808.932,81).
