Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait Of A Gentleman, Half Length, Holding A Portrait Of A Lady by Giovanni de' Busi was sold in the Master Paintings & 19th Century European Art auction at Sothebys in New York in January 2016. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 43,750.00 (€ 40,389.59) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Giovanni de' Busi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Christ Carrying The Cross in December 2015 with an auction result of GBP 125,000.00 (€ 169,743.99).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait Of A Gentleman, Half Length, Holding A Portrait Of A Lady von Giovanni de' Busi wurde im Januar 2016 in der Auktion Master Paintings & 19th Century European Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 43.750,00 (€ 40.389,59) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Giovanni de' Busi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Christ Carrying The Cross im Dezember 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 125.000,00 (€ 169.743,99).
