Auction result misses estimated price range
In April 2003 a collector was able to acquire the work Conchological Studies: Eight Plates by Rumpius for USD 1,912.00 (€ 1,557.00). This price was achieved in the auction The House Sale at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 2,500.00 – 3,500.00 set by the auction house. Other works by Rumpius have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in March 2004 by the work [Conchological Studies: Six Plates|AID888351] at USD 2,270.50 (€ 1,847.14).
