A top price for Giovanni Battista Lusieri - as previously expected
In July 2013 Christies in London held the auction Old Master & British Drawings & Watercolours, which included the work Panoramic view of Rome from Piazza San Pietro in Montorio on the Janiculum: From Saint Peter's to the Chiesa Nuova with San Giovanni dei Fiorentini and Castel Sant' Angelo by Giovanni Battista Lusieri. The price achieved of GBP 481,875.00 (€ 550,626.18) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400,000.00 – 600,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Panoramic view of Rome from Piazza San Pietro in Montorio on the Janiculum: From Saint Peter's to the Chiesa Nuova with San Giovanni dei Fiorentini and Castel Sant' Angelo is the most expensive artwork by Giovanni Battista Lusieri that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juli 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master & British Drawings & Watercolours durch, in der auch die Arbeit Panoramic view of Rome from Piazza San Pietro in Montorio on the Janiculum: From Saint Peter's to the Chiesa Nuova with San Giovanni dei Fiorentini and Castel Sant' Angelo von Giovanni Battista Lusieri zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 481.875,00 (€ 550.626,18) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400.000,00 – 600.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Panoramic view of Rome from Piazza San Pietro in Montorio on the Janiculum: From Saint Peter's to the Chiesa Nuova with San Giovanni dei Fiorentini and Castel Sant' Angelo das teuerste Kunstwerk von Giovanni Battista Lusieri, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
