In January 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction From Taddeo to Tiepolo: The Dr. John O’Brien Collection of Old Master Drawings, which included the work Study for the Translation of the Relics of Saints Acutius and Eutychetes from Pozzuoli to Naples by Corrado Giaquinto. The »bidding war« ended at USD 100,800.00 (€ 83,065.51), 68% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Corrado Giaquinto - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Maria Immaculata mit dem Propheten Elias., which sold at auction in March 2008 for CHF 408,000.00 (€ 260,185.51).
