Description
JAN MORTEL (LEIDEN 1652-1719) Fruit in a wicker basket, with a snail, a dragonfly and a mouse, on a rock, a landscape beyond signed and dated 'JMortel fecit / Aº. 1716' ('JM' linked, lower center) oil on panel 18 3 ⁄ 8 x 13 3 ⁄ 4 in. (47.3 x 34.6 cm.)
Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Fruit In A Wicker Basket, With A Snail, A Dragonfly And A Mouse, On A Rock, A Landscape Beyond by Jan Mortel was sold in the Old Masters: No Reserves auction at Christies in New York in June last year. It changed hands for a price of USD 17,640.00 (€ 16,849.75) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jan Mortel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Peaches, plums, apricots, grapes, pears, blackberries, sheafs of corn, chestnuts, walnuts, medlars, cherries and a pomegranate with a snail, a butterfly, a grasshopper and a caterpillar by a plinth in December 2005 with an auction result of GBP 120,000.00 (€ 174,173.28).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Fruit In A Wicker Basket, With A Snail, A Dragonfly And A Mouse, On A Rock, A Landscape Beyond von Jan Mortel wurde im Juni letzten Jahres in der Auktion Old Masters: No Reserves bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 17.640,00 (€ 16.849,75) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jan Mortel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Peaches, plums, apricots, grapes, pears, blackberries, sheafs of corn, chestnuts, walnuts, medlars, cherries and a pomegranate with a snail, a butterfly, a grasshopper and a caterpillar by a plinth im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 120.000,00 (€ 174.173,28).
