Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Leda And The Swan by Vincent Sellaer was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2019. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 52,500.00 (€ 62,048.86). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Vincent Sellaer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Allegory Of Charity, which sold at auction in June 2015 for USD 150,000.00 (€ 134,480.90).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Leda And The Swan von Vincent Sellaer kam im Dezember 2019 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 50.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 52.500,00 (€ 62.048,86) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Vincent Sellaer mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Allegory Of Charity beobachtet, die im Juni 2015 für USD 150.000,00 (€ 134.480,90) versteigert wurde.
