In October 2019 Christies in London held the auction Thinking Italian Evening Auction, which included the work In tolda by Salvatore Scarpitta. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 911,250.00 (€ 1,056,984.65), 30% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Salvatore Scarpitta - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Housing Developed, which sold at auction in October 2019 for GBP 2,535,000.00 (€ 2,940,418.20).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 30 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion Thinking Italian Evening Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit In tolda von Salvatore Scarpitta zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 911.250,00 (€ 1.056.984,65) und damit 30% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Salvatore Scarpitta mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Housing Developed beobachtet, die im Oktober 2019 für GBP 2.535.000,00 (€ 2.940.418,20) versteigert wurde.
