Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A States Yacht From The Admiralty Of Amsterdam, Before A Moderate Breeze, Meeting A Two-Decker by Willem van de Velde II was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2020. The price achieved of USD 500,000.00 (€ 450,734.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 400,000.00 – 600,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Willem van de Velde II achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dutch men-o'-war and other shipping in a calm in December 2011 with an auction result of GBP 5,921,250.00 (€ 7,091,533.28).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit A States Yacht From The Admiralty Of Amsterdam, Before A Moderate Breeze, Meeting A Two-Decker von Willem van de Velde II kam im Januar 2020 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 500.000,00 (€ 450.734,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 400.000,00 – 600.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Willem van de Velde II erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Dutch men-o'-war and other shipping in a calm im Dezember 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.921.250,00 (€ 7.091.533,28).
