Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
The work The Martydom of Saint Sebastian by Jacques Callot was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2019. It achieved a price of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,432.06), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Martydom of Saint Sebastian von Jacques Callot kam im Dezember 2019 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.432,06) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 50%. 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).
