Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May 2009 Sothebys in Amsterdam held the auction Old Master paintings, which included the work A River Landscape With A Ruined Castle And Men Casting A Net From A Rowing Boat by Wouter Knijff. Here, the upper estimate of EUR 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for EUR 6,875.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wouter Knijff - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Fishermen in rowing boats near the Kleine Houtpoort, Haarlem; and A river landscape with a romanesque church and a walled town, which sold at auction in November 2011 for EUR 27,400.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2009 führte Sothebys in Amsterdam die Auktion Old Master paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A River Landscape With A Ruined Castle And Men Casting A Net From A Rowing Boat von Wouter Knijff zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von EUR 6.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für EUR 6.875,00 einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Wouter Knijff mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Fishermen in rowing boats near the Kleine Houtpoort, Haarlem; and A river landscape with a romanesque church and a walled town beobachtet, die im November 2011 für EUR 27.400,00 versteigert wurde.
