Despite a disappointment, a good price for A. Piazza
In April 2006 a collector was able to acquire the work Love And The Butterfly by A. Piazza for USD 24,000.00 (€ 19,011.41). This price was achieved in the auction 19th Century European Art at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, Love And The Butterfly is the most expensive artwork by A. Piazza that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für A. Piazza
Im April 2006 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Love And The Butterfly von A. Piazza für USD 24.000,00 (€ 19.011,41) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion 19th Century European Art bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Love And The Butterfly das teuerste Kunstwerk von A. Piazza, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
