Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Old Master Paintings, which included the work The Madonna and Child by Antonio Vivarini. The price achieved of GBP 100,250.00 (€ 119,577.22) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Admittedly, works by Antonio Vivarini have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Saint Peter Martyr at prayer in June last year with an auction result of USD 630,000.00 (€ 601,776.67).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Madonna and Child von Antonio Vivarini zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 100.250,00 (€ 119.577,22) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Antonio Vivarini auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Saint Peter Martyr at prayer im Juni letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 630.000,00 (€ 601.776,67).
