Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Man Playing A Violin, Possibly A Portrait Of The Artist by Peter Lely was auctioned at Christies in New York in April 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 300,000.00 – 500,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 348,500.00 (€ 288,636.74) could thus just exceed the lower estimate.
