This artwork by Giovanni Antonio Guardi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in April 2008. In the Old Masterand British Pictures auction, the work Portrait of Elisabetta Farnese, Queen of Spain, Seated Three-Quarter-Length, In An Ermine-Lined Cloak, With A Crown Beside Her, In A Draped Interior sold for GBP 84,500.00 (€ 107,725.56) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 40,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Giovanni Antonio Guardi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Apollo; and Diana, which sold at auction in June 2015 for USD 245,000.00 (€ 219,652.14).
