Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Antonio Maria Vassallo could be acquired at Christies in October 2021 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master Paintings and Sculpture auction, the work Medea using her Magic, a scene from Ovid's Metamorphoses changed hands for USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,492.38) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Antonio Maria Vassallo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Forest Floor Still Life With A Dog, A Cockerel, Horse Chestnuts And A Melon; A Forest Floor Still Life With Figs, Pears, Melons, Apricots And Cucumbers, which sold at auction in July 2012 for GBP 20,000.00 (€ 25,474.62).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Antonio Maria Vassallo konnte im Oktober 2021 bei Christies für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master Paintings and Sculpture wechselte die Arbeit Medea using her Magic, a scene from Ovid's Metamorphoses für USD 7.500,00 (€ 6.492,38) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Antonio Maria Vassallo mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Forest Floor Still Life With A Dog, A Cockerel, Horse Chestnuts And A Melon; A Forest Floor Still Life With Figs, Pears, Melons, Apricots And Cucumbers beobachtet, die im Juli 2012 für GBP 20.000,00 (€ 25.474,62) versteigert wurde.
