Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2000 Christies in London held the auction IMPRESSIONIST AND 19TH CENTURY ART, which included the work After the masked ball by Giovanni Costa. The price achieved of GBP 5,875.00 (€ 10,042.05) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Giovanni Costa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An odalisque with a red fan, which sold at auction in July 2008 for GBP 25,000.00 (€ 31,762.78).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2000 führte Christies in London die Auktion IMPRESSIONIST AND 19TH CENTURY ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit After the masked ball von Giovanni Costa zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.875,00 (€ 10.042,05) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Giovanni Costa mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An odalisque with a red fan beobachtet, die im Juli 2008 für GBP 25.000,00 (€ 31.762,78) versteigert wurde.
