Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2020 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters Paintings & Sculpture, which included the work The interior of a church with people praying by candlelight by Pieter Neefs the Younger. The price achieved of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 9,759.96) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pieter Neefs the Younger achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of an elegantly dressed couple and a page in a picture gallery in October 2017 with an auction result of USD 432,500.00 (€ 371,308.38).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2020 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters Paintings & Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit The interior of a church with people praying by candlelight von Pieter Neefs the Younger zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 8.750,00 (€ 9.759,96) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pieter Neefs the Younger erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of an elegantly dressed couple and a page in a picture gallery im Oktober 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 432.500,00 (€ 371.308,38).
