In April 2009 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & Early British Paintings, which included the work The Lamentation Over The Dead Christ by Francesco da Ponte. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 30,000.00 (€ 33,522.35), 50% above the upper estimate. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Im April 2009 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & Early British Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Lamentation Over The Dead Christ von Francesco da Ponte zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 30.000,00 (€ 33.522,35) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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.
