Despite a disappointment, a good price for Willem Hendriks
When the work A shepherd and shepherdess with their flock near a pond by Willem Hendriks was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2009, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of EUR 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for EUR 1,875.00. Despite this disappointing result, A shepherd and shepherdess with their flock near a pond is the most expensive artwork by Willem Hendriks that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Willem Hendriks
Als die Arbeit A shepherd and shepherdess with their flock near a pond von Willem Hendriks im September 2009 bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von EUR 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für EUR 1.875,00 den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist A shepherd and shepherdess with their flock near a pond das teuerste Kunstwerk von Willem Hendriks, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
