Auction result misses estimated price range

In January 2007 a collector was able to acquire the work A Monk Giving Alms To A Group Of Beggars, A Church Being Built In The Background   by Giovanni Battista Paggi for USD 6,600.00 (€ 5,077.70). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master Drawings at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 7,000.00 – 9,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Giovanni Battista Paggi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Holy Family in April 2009 with an auction result of GBP 31,250.00 (€ 34,919.11).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im Januar 2007 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit A Monk Giving Alms To A Group Of Beggars, A Church Being Built In The Background   von Giovanni Battista Paggi für USD 6.600,00 (€ 5.077,70) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master Drawings bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 7.000,00 – 9.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Giovanni Battista Paggi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Holy Family im April 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 31.250,00 (€ 34.919,11).
