Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Bernardino Barbatelli achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2014. In the Old Master Prints auction, the work The Crucifixion (Nagler 1999, Le Blanc 2; Bury 48; Reed & Wallace 106) sold for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 35,401.62) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 10,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Bernardino Barbatelli; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot An Elaborate Cartouche With The Medici Arms Flanked By Figures of Justice And Wisdom sold at auction in July 2005 with the realized price of GBP 33,600.00 (€ 48,736.48).
