Antonio Zanchi (Este 1631-1722 Venice)
The Death of Seneca

with inventory number '38' (lower left)

Upper estimate price exceeded by 67 %.

In January 2004 Christies in New York held the auction Important Old Master Paintings, which included the work The Death of Seneca by Antonio Zanchi. The »bidding war« ended at USD 33,460.00 (€ 26,871.19), 67% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Antonio Zanchi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An Allegory of Time, which sold at auction in July 2008 for GBP 73,250.00 (€ 93,064.95).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 67 % übertroffen

Im Januar 2004 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Important Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Death of Seneca von Antonio Zanchi zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 33.460,00 (€ 26.871,19) und damit 67% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Antonio Zanchi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An Allegory of Time beobachtet, die im Juli 2008 für GBP 73.250,00 (€ 93.064,95) versteigert wurde.
