Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Virgin Annunciate by Giovanni di Paolo was sold in the Important Old Master Paintings, Part I auction at Christies in New York in April 2006. The »bidding war« ended at USD 84,000.00 (€ 66,539.92), 20% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Giovanni di Paolo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Saint Clare rescuing the shipwrecked in December 2019 with an auction result of GBP 5,313,750.00 (€ 6,280,230.58).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Virgin Annunciate von Giovanni di Paolo wurde im April 2006 in der Auktion Important Old Master Paintings, Part I bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 84.000,00 (€ 66.539,92) und damit 20% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Giovanni di Paolo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Saint Clare rescuing the shipwrecked im Dezember 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.313.750,00 (€ 6.280.230,58).
