Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price

When the work The Madonna and Child with Saint John the Baptist by Francesco Botticini was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2007, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 70,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 385,000.00 (€ 266,104.51). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francesco Botticini - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Madonna And Child With The Infant Saint John The Baptist In A Landscape, which sold at auction in July 2013 for GBP 494,500.00 (€ 565,052.44).

Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit The Madonna and Child with Saint John the Baptist von Francesco Botticini im Oktober 2007 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 70.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 385.000,00 (€ 266.104,51) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Francesco Botticini mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Madonna And Child With The Infant Saint John The Baptist In A Landscape beobachtet, die im Juli 2013 für GBP 494.500,00 (€ 565.052,44) versteigert wurde.
