Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Francesco Salvator Fontebasso could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in January 2021 for an unexpectedly low price. In the From Taddeo to Tiepolo: The Dr. John O’Brien Collection of Old Master Drawings auction, the work Sheet of hand studies changed hands for USD 7,560.00 (€ 6,229.91) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francesco Salvator Fontebasso achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Annunciation in January 2007 with an auction result of USD 312,000.00 (€ 240,036.93).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Francesco Salvator Fontebasso konnte im Januar 2021 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion From Taddeo to Tiepolo: The Dr. John O’Brien Collection of Old Master Drawings wechselte die Arbeit Sheet of hand studies für USD 7.560,00 (€ 6.229,91) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Francesco Salvator Fontebasso erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Annunciation im Januar 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 312.000,00 (€ 240.036,93).
