Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2005 Christies in London held the auction Old Master Pictures, which included the work An Italianate landscape with herdsmen driving cattle, sheep and goats to water, a town in the distance; and A mountainous Italianate landscape with a herdsman and cattle by a stream and lightning striking a rock in the distance by Carlo Antonio Tavella. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 21,600.00 (€ 31,351.19) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Carlo Antonio Tavella - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Paesaggi Con Figure, which sold at auction in June 2010 for EUR 63,100.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2005 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit An Italianate landscape with herdsmen driving cattle, sheep and goats to water, a town in the distance; and A mountainous Italianate landscape with a herdsman and cattle by a stream and lightning striking a rock in the distance von Carlo Antonio Tavella zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 21.600,00 (€ 31.351,19) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Carlo Antonio Tavella mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Paesaggi Con Figure beobachtet, die im Juni 2010 für EUR 63.100,00 versteigert wurde.
