Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Family (Godefroy, Hollstein 46) by Adriaen van Ostade was sold in the Old Master Prints auction at Sothebys in London in December 2021. The price achieved of GBP 2,520.00 (€ 3,005.83) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Adriaen van Ostade achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work De Drinker: Three boors drinking and smoking in a spirit house in December 2002 with an auction result of GBP 1,051,650.00 (€ 1,614,335.41).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Family (Godefroy, Hollstein 46) von Adriaen van Ostade wurde im Dezember 2021 in der Auktion Old Master Prints bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.520,00 (€ 3.005,83) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Adriaen van Ostade erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit De Drinker: Three boors drinking and smoking in a spirit house im Dezember 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.051.650,00 (€ 1.614.335,41).
