Sold at the upper estimate price
In December 2019 Christies in London held the auction Old Master Prints, which included the work La tentation de Saint Antoine by Jacques Callot. The auction ended at the price of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,545.65), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jacques Callot achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Fair At Gondreville, Or Mayday Celebrations At Xeuilley in July 2007 with an auction result of GBP 288,000.00 (€ 427,746.48).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master Prints durch, in der auch die Arbeit La tentation de Saint Antoine von Jacques Callot zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 3.000,00 (€ 3.545,65) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jacques Callot erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Fair At Gondreville, Or Mayday Celebrations At Xeuilley im Juli 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 288.000,00 (€ 427.746,48).
