24. Jun - 8. Jul 2022
Estimate: 8.000 - 12.000 GBP
Price realised: 17.640 GBP
JACOB BILTIUS (THE HAGUE 1633-1681 BERGEN OP ZOOM) Trompe l'œil of a hare, hunting horn and hunting satchel signed and dated 'J: biltius fecit / 16 64' (lower right) oil on canvas, unlined 39 1 ⁄ 2 x 29 3 ⁄ 4 in. (100.3 x 75.6 cm.)

Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.

In July last year Christies in London held the auction Old Master Paintings & Sculpture Online, which included the work Trompe l'œil of a hare, hunting horn and hunting satchel by Jacobus Biltius. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 17,640.00 (€ 21,065.29), 47% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jacobus Biltius - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Trompe L'Oeil Still Life With Two Quails, A Kingfisher, A Bird Net And A Whistle, which sold at auction in December 2010 for GBP 61,250.00 (€ 71,049.82).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen

Im Juli letzten Jahres führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings & Sculpture Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Trompe l'œil of a hare, hunting horn and hunting satchel von Jacobus Biltius zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 17.640,00 (€ 21.065,29) und damit 47% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Jacobus Biltius mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Trompe L'Oeil Still Life With Two Quails, A Kingfisher, A Bird Net And A Whistle beobachtet, die im Dezember 2010 für GBP 61.250,00 (€ 71.049,82) versteigert wurde.
