注意事项

Christie's charges a Buyer's premium calculated at 20.825% of the hammer price for each lot with a value up to €90,000 (NLG 198.334). If the hammer price of a lot exceeds €90,000 then the hammer price of a lot is calculated at 20.825% of the first €90,000 plus 11.9% of any amount in excess of €90,000. Buyer's Premium is calculated on this basis for each lot individually.

拍品专文

Comparable with the signed and dated picture by Pynas of Narcissus, in the National Gallery, London, inv. no. 6460. According to the Leyden exhibition catalogue, loc. cit., the unusual depiction of the angels, sitting on clouds, probably derives from an Italian, probably Bolognese, prototype.
The subject is taken from Genesis XVIII:2.
