Sold at the lower estimate price
In July 2016 Christies in London held the auction Old Master and British Paintings Day Sale, which included the work The Virgin and Child with the Infants Saint John the Baptist and James, before a draped curtain, a landscape beyond by Vincent Sellaer. The result of GBP 20,000.00 (€ 23,764.33) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Admittedly, works by Vincent Sellaer have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Allegory Of Charity in June 2015 with an auction result of USD 150,000.00 (€ 134,480.90).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Juli 2016 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master and British Paintings Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Virgin and Child with the Infants Saint John the Baptist and James, before a draped curtain, a landscape beyond von Vincent Sellaer zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 20.000,00 (€ 23.764,33) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Vincent Sellaer auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Allegory Of Charity im Juni 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 150.000,00 (€ 134.480,90).
