This artwork by Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2012. In the Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale auction, the work Portrait of a woman, half-length, in a yellow dress and red wrap, with pearl earrings sold for GBP 52,850.00 (€ 65,178.73) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bathsheba at her toilet, which sold at auction in April 2007 for USD 216,000.00 (€ 158,125.92).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini erzielte im Dezember 2012 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master & British Paintings Day Sale wurde die Arbeit Portrait of a woman, half-length, in a yellow dress and red wrap, with pearl earrings für GBP 52.850,00 (€ 65.178,73) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 25.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bathsheba at her toilet beobachtet, die im April 2007 für USD 216.000,00 (€ 158.125,92) versteigert wurde.
