Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Latinus Welcomes Aeneas And Offers His Daughter Lavinia In Marriage by Francesco de Mura was auctioned at Christies in New York in January 2014, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 70,000.00 – 100,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 62,500.00 (€ 46,296.30). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francesco de Mura - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Martirio Di Santa Barbara Strage Degli Innocenti, which sold at auction in June 2011 for EUR 132,750.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Latinus Welcomes Aeneas And Offers His Daughter Lavinia In Marriage von Francesco de Mura im Januar 2014 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 70.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 62.500,00 (€ 46.296,30) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Francesco de Mura mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Martirio Di Santa Barbara Strage Degli Innocenti beobachtet, die im Juni 2011 für EUR 132.750,00 versteigert wurde.
