Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Sheet Of Studies Of Moths by Pieter Withoos was sold in the Old Master Drawings auction at Sothebys in London in July 2008. The price achieved of GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,558.49) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,500.00 – 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Pieter Withoos have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Studies Of Insects, Including Two Long-Horned Beetles (Batocera Octomaculata And Eurycephalus Maxillosus), A Nine-Spotted Moth (Amata Phegea), A Yellow-Shell Butterfly (Camptogramma Bilineata) And A Bumblebee (Bombus Hortorum) in July 2019 with an auction result of GBP 22,500.00 (€ 24,703.50).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A Sheet Of Studies Of Moths von Pieter Withoos wurde im Juli 2008 in der Auktion Old Master Drawings bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.375,00 (€ 5.558,49) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.500,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Pieter Withoos auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Studies Of Insects, Including Two Long-Horned Beetles (Batocera Octomaculata And Eurycephalus Maxillosus), A Nine-Spotted Moth (Amata Phegea), A Yellow-Shell Butterfly (Camptogramma Bilineata) And A Bumblebee (Bombus Hortorum) im Juli 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 22.500,00 (€ 24.703,50).
