Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Still life with a Chinese ginger jar, a porcelain bowl, a glass roemer and other objects of vertu, with a half-peeled lemon, orange, and melon, all on a marble ledge draped with a Persian carpet by Willem Kalf was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2021. The price achieved of GBP 595,800.00 (€ 710,664.43) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500,000.00 – 700,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Willem Kalf - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Chafing Dish, Two Pilgrims' Canteens, A Silver-Gilt Ewer, A Plate And Other Tableware On A Partially Draped Table, which sold at auction in May 2019 for USD 2,775,000.00 (€ 2,489,012.47).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Still life with a Chinese ginger jar, a porcelain bowl, a glass roemer and other objects of vertu, with a half-peeled lemon, orange, and melon, all on a marble ledge draped with a Persian carpet von Willem Kalf kam im Dezember 2021 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 595.800,00 (€ 710.664,43) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 500.000,00 – 700.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Willem Kalf mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Chafing Dish, Two Pilgrims' Canteens, A Silver-Gilt Ewer, A Plate And Other Tableware On A Partially Draped Table beobachtet, die im Mai 2019 für USD 2.775.000,00 (€ 2.489.012,47) versteigert wurde.
