Auction result misses estimated price range
In October 2004 a collector was able to acquire the work Veduta Dell'Arco di Costantino; Veduta Dell'Anfiteatro Flavio Detto Il Colofseo; Veduta Del Pantheon D'Agrippa: Three Plates by Francesco Piranesi for USD 2,629.00 (€ 2,062.61). This price was achieved in the auction Property from the Collection of Peggy N. and Roger G. Gerry, at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Francesco Piranesi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Veduta Del Prospetto Principale Della Colonna Antonina in March 2017 with an auction result of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 14,648.77).
