Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Archangel Raphael - a modello by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo was sold in the Old Masters Evening Sale auction at Christies in London in July 2021. The price achieved of GBP 75,000.00 (€ 87,953.05) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 60,000.00 – 100,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Christ the Man of Sorrows in December 2005 with an auction result of GBP 2,472,000.00 (€ 3,587,969.60).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Archangel Raphael - a modello von Bartolomé Esteban Murillo wurde im Juli 2021 in der Auktion Old Masters Evening Sale bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 75.000,00 (€ 87.953,05) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 60.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bartolomé Esteban Murillo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Christ the Man of Sorrows im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.472.000,00 (€ 3.587.969,60).
