A top price for Francesco Albani - as previously expected

The work The Holy Family In A Landscape by Francesco Albani was sold in the Old Masters Evening Sale auction at Sothebys in London in December 2016. The price achieved of GBP 236,750.00 (€ 276,799.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Holy Family In A Landscape is the most expensive artwork by Francesco Albani that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Die Arbeit The Holy Family In A Landscape von Francesco Albani wurde im Dezember 2016 in der Auktion Old Masters Evening Sale bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 236.750,00 (€ 276.799,16) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Holy Family In A Landscape das teuerste Kunstwerk von Francesco Albani, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
