Sold at the lower estimate price

The work The Continence Of Scipio by Francesco Salvator Fontebasso was sold in the Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale auction at Christies in London in December 2015. The result of GBP 30,000.00 (€ 40,738.56) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Admittedly, works by Francesco Salvator Fontebasso have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Annunciation in January 2007 with an auction result of USD 312,000.00 (€ 240,036.93).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Die Arbeit The Continence Of Scipio von Francesco Salvator Fontebasso wurde im Dezember 2015 in der Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale bei Christies in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 30.000,00 (€ 40.738,56) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Francesco Salvator Fontebasso auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Annunciation im Januar 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 312.000,00 (€ 240.036,93).
