Auction result well in line with expectations
The work David with the head of Goliath by Giovanni Andrea Sirani was sold in the Old Master & 19th Century Paintings, Drawings, & Watercolors auction at Christies in New York in January 2010. The price achieved of USD 47,500.00 (€ 34,246.58) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Giovanni Andrea Sirani - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Allegory of Painting and Music, which sold at auction in October 2021 for USD 112,500.00 (€ 97,385.73).
