Sold at the upper estimate price

In January 2012 Christies in New York held the auction Old Master Paintings Part II, which included the work Minerva and Mercury protecting Painting against Ignorance and Calumny by Simon de Vos. The auction ended at the price of USD 50,000.00 (€ 38,305.37), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Admittedly, works by Simon de Vos have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Convival Card Game in January 2007 with an auction result of USD 288,000.00 (€ 221,572.55).
