Despite a disappointment, a good price for Quentin Massys

In January 2015 a collector was able to acquire the work The Madonna Of The Cherries by Quentin Massys for USD 1,445,000.00 (€ 1,279,893.71). This price was achieved in the auction Master Paintings: Part I at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 1,500,000.00 – 2,000,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, The Madonna Of The Cherries is the most expensive artwork by Quentin Massys that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Quentin Massys

Im Januar 2015 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Madonna Of The Cherries von Quentin Massys für USD 1.445.000,00 (€ 1.279.893,71) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Master Paintings: Part I bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500.000,00 – 2.000.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist The Madonna Of The Cherries das teuerste Kunstwerk von Quentin Massys, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
