Upper estimate price exceeded by 67 %.
The work A boy sleeping on his mother's lap by Petrus Marius Molijn was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in May 2010. It achieved a price of GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,929.10), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Petrus Marius Molijn achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Throwing the dice in October 2005 with an auction result of EUR 42,000.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 67 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit A boy sleeping on his mother's lap von Petrus Marius Molijn wurde im Mai 2010 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 2.500,00 (€ 2.929,10) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 67%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Petrus Marius Molijn erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Throwing the dice im Oktober 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 42.000,00.
