Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Dutch men-o'-war and other shipping in choppy seas, with a view of the coast beyond by Willem van Diest was sold in the Old Master Pictures & Drawings auction at Christies in London in December 2005. The price achieved of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 8,708.66) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Admittedly, works by Willem van Diest have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Smalschepen offshore as a storm approaches in November 2001 with an auction result of EUR 49,350.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Dutch men-o'-war and other shipping in choppy seas, with a view of the coast beyond von Willem van Diest wurde im Dezember 2005 in der Auktion Old Master Pictures & Drawings bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 8.708,66) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Willem van Diest auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Smalschepen offshore as a storm approaches im November 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 49.350,00.
