A top price for Giovanni Battista Foggini - as previously expected
In January this year Christies in New York held the auction Modern Medici: Masterpieces from a New York Collection, which included the work A Bronze Group Of Apollo Flaying Marsyas by Giovanni Battista Foggini. The price achieved of USD 882,000.00 (€ 812,304.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 800,000.00 – 1,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A Bronze Group Of Apollo Flaying Marsyas is the most expensive artwork by Giovanni Battista Foggini that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Januar diesen Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Modern Medici: Masterpieces from a New York Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Bronze Group Of Apollo Flaying Marsyas von Giovanni Battista Foggini zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 882.000,00 (€ 812.304,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 800.000,00 – 1.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist A Bronze Group Of Apollo Flaying Marsyas das teuerste Kunstwerk von Giovanni Battista Foggini, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
