Sold at the lower estimate price
In April 2009 Christies in London held the auction Old Master, Modern & Contemporary Prints, which included the work Saint Anthony of Padua adoring the Christ Child in Glory (B. 25; Bellini 26) by Simone Cantarini. The result of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,117.41) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Simone Cantarini achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of A Seated Gentleman And A Lady Holding A Rosary in April 2006 with an auction result of USD 408,000.00 (€ 323,193.92).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im April 2009 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master, Modern & Contemporary Prints durch, in der auch die Arbeit Saint Anthony of Padua adoring the Christ Child in Glory (B. 25; Bellini 26) von Simone Cantarini zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.117,41) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Simone Cantarini erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of A Seated Gentleman And A Lady Holding A Rosary im April 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 408.000,00 (€ 323.193,92).
