Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Giovanni Battista Gaulli achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in January 2011. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work Recto: A Kneeling Bearded Man And A Putto With Arms Raised; Verso: Three Putti In Flight Below A Cloud sold for USD 56,250.00 (€ 41,013.49) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Giovanni Battista Gaulli achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of A Lady, Head And Shoulders in January 2014 with an auction result of USD 569,000.00 (€ 421,481.48).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
