Auction result well in line with expectations

In January 2018 Sothebys in New York held the auction The Otto Naumann Sale, which included the work Saint Jerome In Prayer by Carlo Dolci. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 150,000.00 – 200,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 162,500.00 (€ 130,753.14) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Carlo Dolci - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Saint Agatha, which sold at auction in July 2018 for GBP 248,750.00 (€ 278,903.45).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Januar 2018 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion The Otto Naumann Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Saint Jerome In Prayer von Carlo Dolci zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 150.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 162.500,00 (€ 130.753,14) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Carlo Dolci mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Saint Agatha beobachtet, die im Juli 2018 für GBP 248.750,00 (€ 278.903,45) versteigert wurde.
