Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2020 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master Day Sale including Old Master Paintings, Drawings and British Works on Paper, which included the work Sailing Vessels In Choppy Seas by Pieter Mulier the Elder. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 16,250.00 (€ 18,125.64) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pieter Mulier the Elder - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An Italianate landscape with a herdsman watering his livestock, which sold at auction in April 2006 for GBP 26,400.00 (€ 38,102.66).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2020 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master Day Sale including Old Master Paintings, Drawings and British Works on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sailing Vessels In Choppy Seas von Pieter Mulier the Elder zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 16.250,00 (€ 18.125,64) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Pieter Mulier the Elder mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An Italianate landscape with a herdsman watering his livestock beobachtet, die im April 2006 für GBP 26.400,00 (€ 38.102,66) versteigert wurde.
