Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price

When the work A cavalry skirmish with a fallen soldier; and A cavalry skirmish with a fallen horse by Palamedes Palamedesz. I was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in May 2004, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 6,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at EUR 26,290.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Palamedes Palamedesz. I - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Interieur mit einer fröhlichen Gesellschaft, which sold at auction in May this year for EUR 52,920.00.

Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit A cavalry skirmish with a fallen soldier; and A cavalry skirmish with a fallen horse von Palamedes Palamedesz. I im Mai 2004 bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – EUR 6.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit EUR 26.290,00 mehr als viermal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Palamedes Palamedesz. I mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Interieur mit einer fröhlichen Gesellschaft beobachtet, die im Mai diesen Jahres für EUR 52.920,00 versteigert wurde.
