Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Lucretia by Giovanni Andrea Sirani was sold in the Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in December 2012. The price achieved of GBP 34,850.00 (€ 42,979.73) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 40,000.00. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Lucretia von Giovanni Andrea Sirani wurde im Dezember 2012 in der Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 34.850,00 (€ 42.979,73) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 30.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Giovanni Andrea Sirani mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Allegory of Painting and Music beobachtet, die im Oktober 2021 für USD 112.500,00 (€ 97.385,73) versteigert wurde.
