"The amount of the transaction were not disclosed, but they say that the price of graphic work amounted to several thousand (or even tens of thousands) of dollars."

that is, it is not even the hundreds of thousands?

I think the price of several million ve ... In the article a bit reinsured

I think that later leaked to the press accurate information, so that one can only wait ...

Meister, I'll try to find, but when private funds are involved there usually are talking about hundreds of thousands of U.S. dollars and more.
Metropolitan Museum of Art, its policy on purchases, I studied in detail when searching for information on drawings Rosalba Carriera (1673-1757), they, too, through a private fund for 620t.ue bought her bed (56h42sm, in 2002 at SodBi).
  Find the information required, write.

I strongly doubt that we are talking about millions of ... Unfortunately, for unknown reasons to me the art of old masters on the market is not expensive. Won 9 Number of Sotheby's sold a small Hals - textbook, beautifully made, with perfect provenance, a portrait very small - so went for 7 million pounds, not 70 ... And this Hals painting and ... And then Lucas van Leyden, whom they know something mostly professionals, and graphics. Cheap is the market relatively cheaply ...
I looked for examples of the old masters auction schedules Sothebys, such work - Lucas is not found, but there are analog sales:

2007
- Here, for example, his contemporary, the Netherlands, too, draftsman Goltzius - for 66 thousand pounds went
http://www.sothebys.com/app/live/lot...live_lot_id=11
- Another master of Leiden beginning of 16 century, Peter Korneslis - generally 9 thousand pounds, below the estimate http://www.sothebys.com/app/live/lot...;live_lot_id=8

2008
- Unknown artist, the Netherlands, beg. 16 th century - 79 thousand dollars
http://www.sothebys.com/app/live/lot...ive_lot_id=112
- Later the work of Martin de Vos - some 6.6 thousand pounds
http://www.sothebys.com/app/live/lot...;live_lot_id=4
- Well, and the German school, ser. 16 th century - 13,7 thousand pounds
http://www.sothebys.com/app/live/lot...;live_lot_id=5

I think that given the uniqueness of the figure he could get by the Metropolitan from 100 to 200 thousand dollars. Surprised if more expensive. But I would be pleased if I am wrong - because the picture is really stunning.

Eugene, this Livensa I saw, but I specifically chose only 16 century. All the same well-known 17th and I think it might be wrong, the feeling is more expensive. Leiden not Livens, but not Durer, speaking of the 16 th century. We ought to see, by the way, how many now Durer would cost. I look for and try to find out.
A bed is another story altogether.

Jan Livens and Lucas lived almost at the same time, the difference nebolshaya.Tsenu Lucas, I think we learn the information to appear.

The price may rise significantly, given that time. Search analogues, there is no sense .. here a slightly different case and different pricing.
