A top price for Fra Bartolommeo - as previously expected
In January 2013 Christies in New York held the auction Renaissance, which included the work The Madonna And Child by Fra Bartolommeo. The price achieved of USD 12,962,500.00 (€ 9,542,476.44) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000,000.00 – 15,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Madonna And Child is the most expensive artwork by Fra Bartolommeo that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Januar 2013 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Renaissance durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Madonna And Child von Fra Bartolommeo zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 12.962.500,00 (€ 9.542.476,44) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000.000,00 – 15.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Madonna And Child das teuerste Kunstwerk von Fra Bartolommeo, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
