A top price for Francisco de Goya - as previously expected
In January this year Christies in New York held the auction Old Masters, which included the work Portrait of Doña María Vicenta Barruso Valdés, seated on a sofa with a lap-dog; and Portrait of her mother Doña Leonora Antonia Valdés de Barruso, seated on a chair holding a fan by Francisco de Goya. The price achieved of USD 16,420,000.00 (€ 15,122,490.33) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 15,000,000.00 – 20,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of Doña María Vicenta Barruso Valdés, seated on a sofa with a lap-dog; and Portrait of her mother Doña Leonora Antonia Valdés de Barruso, seated on a chair holding a fan is the most expensive artwork by Francisco de Goya that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Januar diesen Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Old Masters durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Doña María Vicenta Barruso Valdés, seated on a sofa with a lap-dog; and Portrait of her mother Doña Leonora Antonia Valdés de Barruso, seated on a chair holding a fan von Francisco de Goya zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 16.420.000,00 (€ 15.122.490,33) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 15.000.000,00 – 20.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Portrait of Doña María Vicenta Barruso Valdés, seated on a sofa with a lap-dog; and Portrait of her mother Doña Leonora Antonia Valdés de Barruso, seated on a chair holding a fan das teuerste Kunstwerk von Francisco de Goya, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
