A top price for Andrea Martinelli
When the work Grande volto di uomo (dittico no1); sequenza no2 by Andrea Martinelli was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 3,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at EUR 11,250.00. This high result makes Grande volto di uomo (dittico no1); sequenza no2 the most expensive artwork by Andrea Martinelli that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Andrea Martinelli
Als die Arbeit Grande volto di uomo (dittico no1); sequenza no2 von Andrea Martinelli im September 2012 bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – EUR 3.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit EUR 11.250,00 mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Grande volto di uomo (dittico no1); sequenza no2 zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Andrea Martinelli, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
