Anonymous sale; Bonhams, London, 7 July 2010, lot 77 (£30,000), when acquired by the present owner.

Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In July 2015 Christies in London held the auction Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale, which included the work The Grand Canal, Venice, looking west towards San Simeone Piccolo by Apollonio Domenichini. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 52,500.00 (€ 74,427.37). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Apollonio Domenichini - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Venice, A View Of Piazza San Marco With The Basilica; Venice, A View From The Giudecca Facing East With The Churches Of The Redentore And The Chiesa Delle Zitelle, which sold at auction in December 2014 for GBP 206,500.00 (€ 265,833.98).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im Juli 2015 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Grand Canal, Venice, looking west towards San Simeone Piccolo von Apollonio Domenichini zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 50.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 52.500,00 (€ 74.427,37) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Apollonio Domenichini mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Venice, A View Of Piazza San Marco With The Basilica; Venice, A View From The Giudecca Facing East With The Churches Of The Redentore And The Chiesa Delle Zitelle beobachtet, die im Dezember 2014 für GBP 206.500,00 (€ 265.833,98) versteigert wurde.
