Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Triumph Of Marcus Furius Camillus, A Cassone Panel by Apollonio di Giovanni was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 200,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 701,000.00 (€ 519,259.26). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Apollonio di Giovanni; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot A Battle Before A Walled City, Perhaps The Siege Of Assisi sold at auction in January 2008 with the realized price of USD 1,273,000.00 (€ 857,758.91).

Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Apollonio di Giovanni; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit A Battle Before A Walled City, Perhaps The Siege Of Assisi im Januar 2008 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 1.273.000,00 (€ 857.758,91).
