Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Godfried Schalcken achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in July 2007. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work A Young Woman Seated At A Table, Holding A Candle Between Her Fingers sold for GBP 14,400.00 (€ 21,387.32) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Godfried Schalcken achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Parable Of The Lost Piece Of Silver in July 2007 with an auction result of GBP 378,400.00 (€ 562,011.35).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Godfried Schalcken erzielte im Juli 2007 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Drawings wurde die Arbeit A Young Woman Seated At A Table, Holding A Candle Between Her Fingers für GBP 14.400,00 (€ 21.387,32) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Godfried Schalcken erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Parable Of The Lost Piece Of Silver im Juli 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 378.400,00 (€ 562.011,35).
