Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
The work The head of Christ by Jacob de Wit was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2015. It achieved a price of EUR 2,250.00 exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25 %. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jacob de Wit achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An allegory of painting and sculpture; and An allegory of music and dance - en grisaille in July this year with an auction result of GBP 97,020.00 (€ 113,192.93).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The head of Christ von Jacob de Wit kam im Mai 2015 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von EUR 2.250,00 und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25 %. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jacob de Wit erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An allegory of painting and sculpture; and An allegory of music and dance - en grisaille im Juli diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 97.020,00 (€ 113.192,93).
