Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Francesco Allegrini could be acquired at Christies in New York in April 2003 for an unexpectedly low price. In the The House Sale auction, the work Nymphs dancing to the music of the satyrs changed hands for USD 836.50 (€ 681.19) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francesco Allegrini achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Christ In Glory With Angels And A Saint Kneeling In Adoration in January 2008 with an auction result of USD 13,750.00 (€ 9,264.87).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Francesco Allegrini konnte im April 2003 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion The House Sale wechselte die Arbeit Nymphs dancing to the music of the satyrs für USD 836,50 (€ 681,19) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Francesco Allegrini erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Christ In Glory With Angels And A Saint Kneeling In Adoration im Januar 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 13.750,00 (€ 9.264,87).
