Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2013 Christies in New York held the auction The Collection of Arthur & Charlotte Vershbow, which included the work Venus and Cupid (B. 46; Holl. 54) by Daniel Hopfer. The price achieved of USD 1,250.00 (€ 949.27) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Daniel Hopfer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Saint George on Horseback slaying the Dragon in January this year with an auction result of USD 41,580.00 (€ 38,294.35).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2013 führte Christies in New York die Auktion The Collection of Arthur & Charlotte Vershbow durch, in der auch die Arbeit Venus and Cupid (B. 46; Holl. 54) von Daniel Hopfer zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.250,00 (€ 949,27) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Daniel Hopfer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Saint George on Horseback slaying the Dragon im Januar diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 41.580,00 (€ 38.294,35).
