A top price for Cecco di Pietro - as previously expected
In July 2012 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale, which included the work The Baptism Of Christ by Cecco di Pietro. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 60,000.00 – 80,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 61,250.00 (€ 78,016.04) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Baptism Of Christ is the most expensive artwork by Cecco di Pietro that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juli 2012 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Baptism Of Christ von Cecco di Pietro zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 61.250,00 (€ 78.016,04) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Baptism Of Christ das teuerste Kunstwerk von Cecco di Pietro, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
