Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Venice, A View Of The Grand Canal Looking South From The Palazzo Foscari And Palazzo Moro-Lin Towards The Church Of Santa Maria Della Carità, With Numerous Gondolas And Barges by Bernardo Bellotto was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 2,500,000.00 – 3,500,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 2,557,000.00 (€ 3,624,967.17) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bernardo Bellotto - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work View of Verona with the Ponte delle Navi, which sold at auction in July 2021 for GBP 10,575,000.00 (€ 12,401,380.23).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Venice, A View Of The Grand Canal Looking South From The Palazzo Foscari And Palazzo Moro-Lin Towards The Church Of Santa Maria Della Carità, With Numerous Gondolas And Barges von Bernardo Bellotto kam im Juli 2015 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.500.000,00 – 3.500.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 2.557.000,00 (€ 3.624.967,17) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Bernardo Bellotto mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit View of Verona with the Ponte delle Navi beobachtet, die im Juli 2021 für GBP 10.575.000,00 (€ 12.401.380,23) versteigert wurde.
