Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Cristofano Robetta could be acquired at Christies in New York in September 2005 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Prints and Multiples auction, the work The Adoration of the Magi (Bartsch 6; Hind 10) changed hands for USD 1,440.00 (€ 1,194.23) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,500.00 – 3,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cristofano Robetta - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Allegorie auf die Macht der Liebe (Ein junger Mann, von Amor an einen Baum gebunden)., which sold at auction in September 2017 for CHF 4,750.00 (€ 4,150.47).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Cristofano Robetta konnte im September 2005 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Prints and Multiples wechselte die Arbeit The Adoration of the Magi (Bartsch 6; Hind 10) für USD 1.440,00 (€ 1.194,23) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500,00 – 3.500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Cristofano Robetta mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Allegorie auf die Macht der Liebe (Ein junger Mann, von Amor an einen Baum gebunden). beobachtet, die im September 2017 für CHF 4.750,00 (€ 4.150,47) versteigert wurde.
