Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Submission of the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa to Pope Alexander III by Federico Zuccaro was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January last year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 18,900.00 (€ 16,856.94). Admittedly, works by Federico Zuccaro have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Submission Of The Emperor Frederick Barbarossa To Pope Alexander Iii in January 2010 with an auction result of USD 194,500.00 (€ 140,230.71).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The Submission of the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa to Pope Alexander III von Federico Zuccaro im Januar letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 18.900,00 (€ 16.856,94) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Federico Zuccaro auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Submission Of The Emperor Frederick Barbarossa To Pope Alexander Iii im Januar 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 194.500,00 (€ 140.230,71).
