In January 2012 Sothebys in New York held the auction Old Master & 19th Century European Art, Including Property from The Forbes Collection: The Panorama of Champigny, which included the work Three Children by Gaetano Bellei. The »bidding war« ended at USD 13,750.00 (€ 10,533.98), 38% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Gaetano Bellei have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Italian a Windy Day in May 2011 with an auction result of USD 134,500.00 (€ 93,558.71).
