Auction result misses estimated price range
In January 2015 a collector was able to acquire the work Saint Simon With The Christ Child by Jan Lievens for USD 185,000.00 (€ 163,861.82). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master Paintings Part I at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 300,000.00 – 500,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jan Lievens achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Tronie: Study Of The Head And Shoulders Of An Old Bearded Man, Wearing A Cap in July 2010 with an auction result of GBP 2,505,250.00 (€ 3,012,280.86).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Januar 2015 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Saint Simon With The Christ Child von Jan Lievens für USD 185.000,00 (€ 163.861,82) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master Paintings Part I bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 300.000,00 – 500.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jan Lievens erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Tronie: Study Of The Head And Shoulders Of An Old Bearded Man, Wearing A Cap im Juli 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.505.250,00 (€ 3.012.280,86).
