Auction result well in line with expectations

In December 2013 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale, which included the work Semiramis Called To Arms by Francesco Rosa. The price achieved of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 18,042.67) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francesco Rosa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Alexander der Große betrauert den toten Dareios III. (330 v. Chr. bei Hekatompylos)., which sold at auction in June 2016 for EUR 37,500.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Dezember 2013 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Semiramis Called To Arms von Francesco Rosa zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 15.000,00 (€ 18.042,67) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Francesco Rosa mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Alexander der Große betrauert den toten Dareios III. (330 v. Chr. bei Hekatompylos). beobachtet, die im Juni 2016 für EUR 37.500,00 versteigert wurde.
