Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Recto: A Moth On A Branch; Verso: A Seated Family Group, With A Woman Preparing Food, And Separate Studies Of Hands And A Bunch Of Grapes by Rochus van Veen was sold in the Old Master & British Drawings Sale auction at Sothebys in London in July 2012. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 5,250.00 (€ 6,687.09) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Rochus van Veen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Dead Starling, which sold at auction in January 2012 for USD 25,000.00 (€ 19,152.69).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Recto: A Moth On A Branch; Verso: A Seated Family Group, With A Woman Preparing Food, And Separate Studies Of Hands And A Bunch Of Grapes von Rochus van Veen wurde im Juli 2012 in der Auktion Old Master & British Drawings Sale bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 5.250,00 (€ 6.687,09) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Rochus van Veen mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Dead Starling beobachtet, die im Januar 2012 für USD 25.000,00 (€ 19.152,69) versteigert wurde.
