Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2002 Christies in New York held the auction Old Master and 19th Century Drawings including Property from, which included the work The Emperor Charles II bringing Pietro Morrone to Rome to become Pope Celestino V by Conrad Martin Metz. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 4,230.00 (€ 4,922.04) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Conrad Martin Metz have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in March 2011 the work La Chasse Au Léopard was auctioned for EUR 7,650.00.
