Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in January 2021 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work A Figure Holding a Torch, Seen from Below changed hands for USD 6,930.00 (€ 5,710.75) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 7,000.00 – 9,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Madonna Of The Rosary With Angels in January 2020 with an auction result of USD 17,349,000.00 (€ 15,639,592.54).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Giovanni Battista Tiepolo konnte im Januar 2021 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master Drawings wechselte die Arbeit A Figure Holding a Torch, Seen from Below für USD 6.930,00 (€ 5.710,75) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 7.000,00 – 9.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Giovanni Battista Tiepolo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Madonna Of The Rosary With Angels im Januar 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 17.349.000,00 (€ 15.639.592,54).
