This artwork by Willem Wissing achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in April 2008. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Portrait of A Lady, Believed To Be Lucy Walters (1630?-1658), Seated Three-Quarter Length In A Landscape, With A Spaniel sold for USD 37,000.00 (€ 23,766.70) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Willem Wissing - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of Francis Thynne, Lady Worsley, full-length, in a red dress and a blue ermine-lined mantle, a domed mansion in a garden beyond, which sold at auction in September 2011 for GBP 79,250.00 (€ 92,066.47).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Willem Wissing erzielte im April 2008 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Portrait of A Lady, Believed To Be Lucy Walters (1630?-1658), Seated Three-Quarter Length In A Landscape, With A Spaniel für USD 37.000,00 (€ 23.766,70) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Willem Wissing mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of Francis Thynne, Lady Worsley, full-length, in a red dress and a blue ermine-lined mantle, a domed mansion in a garden beyond beobachtet, die im September 2011 für GBP 79.250,00 (€ 92.066,47) versteigert wurde.
