A top price for Andrea Casali
When the work Bacchus And Ariadne; Angelica And Medoro by Andrea Casali was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2007, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 40,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 144,500.00 (€ 196,350.99). This high result makes Bacchus And Ariadne; Angelica And Medoro the most expensive artwork by Andrea Casali that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Andrea Casali
Als die Arbeit Bacchus And Ariadne; Angelica And Medoro von Andrea Casali im Dezember 2007 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 40.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 144.500,00 (€ 196.350,99) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Bacchus And Ariadne; Angelica And Medoro zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Andrea Casali, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
