Auction result misses estimated price range
In January 2004 a collector was able to acquire the work Portrait of a young man, said to be a member of the Overstolz de Efferen family of Cologne, bust-length, wearing black costume with white collar by Pieter Pourbus for USD 28,680.00 (€ 23,032.44). This price was achieved in the auction Important Old Master Paintings at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pieter Pourbus achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Last Supper in April 2018 with an auction result of USD 324,500.00 (€ 268,759.32).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Januar 2004 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Portrait of a young man, said to be a member of the Overstolz de Efferen family of Cologne, bust-length, wearing black costume with white collar von Pieter Pourbus für USD 28.680,00 (€ 23.032,44) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Important Old Master Paintings bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pieter Pourbus erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Last Supper im April 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 324.500,00 (€ 268.759,32).
