Sold at the upper estimate price
In March 2019 Sothebys in Paris held the auction Traits et Portraits : Une Collection Particulière, which included the work Study Of A Head, Possibly After The Antique by Annibale Carracci. The auction ended at the price of EUR 15,000.00, which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of EUR 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Annibale Carracci achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Madonna And Child With Saint Lucy And The Young Saint John The Baptist in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 6,063,500.00 (€ 5,438,604.36).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im März 2019 führte Sothebys in Paris die Auktion Traits et Portraits : Une Collection Particulière durch, in der auch die Arbeit Study Of A Head, Possibly After The Antique von Annibale Carracci zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von EUR 15.000,00 entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Annibale Carracci erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Madonna And Child With Saint Lucy And The Young Saint John The Baptist im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 6.063.500,00 (€ 5.438.604,36).
