Upper estimate price exceeded by 29 %.
The work The Birth of the Virgin by Francesco da Ponte was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2000. It achieved a price of GBP 12,925.00 (€ 21,125.40), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 29%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francesco da Ponte - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of a bearded gentleman, half-length, in a black doublet with a white collar, which sold at auction in June last year for USD 88,200.00 (€ 84,248.73).

Die Arbeit The Birth of the Virgin von Francesco da Ponte kam im November 2000 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 12.925,00 (€ 21.125,40) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 29%. Für andere Arbeiten von Francesco da Ponte mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of a bearded gentleman, half-length, in a black doublet with a white collar beobachtet, die im Juni letzten Jahres für USD 88.200,00 (€ 84.248,73) versteigert wurde.
