Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Baccio del Bianco achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in January 2007. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work A beggar carrying an infant sold for USD 2,640.00 (€ 2,031.08) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Baccio del Bianco achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Caricature of the artist returning from the wars to be greeted by the painter Francesco Furini (1604-1645) in December 2006 with an auction result of GBP 15,600.00 (€ 23,152.35).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Baccio del Bianco erzielte im Januar 2007 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Drawings wurde die Arbeit A beggar carrying an infant für USD 2.640,00 (€ 2.031,08) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.200,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Baccio del Bianco erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Caricature of the artist returning from the wars to be greeted by the painter Francesco Furini (1604-1645) im Dezember 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 15.600,00 (€ 23.152,35).
