Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Giovanni Francesco Bezzi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in January 2017. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work The Virgin And Child With Saints Thomas And Anthony Abbot sold for USD 62,500.00 (€ 57,902.54) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Giovanni Francesco Bezzi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Holy Family with Saints John the Baptist and Jerome in July 2018 with an auction result of GBP 764,750.00 (€ 857,452.91).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Giovanni Francesco Bezzi erzielte im Januar 2017 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Drawings wurde die Arbeit The Virgin And Child With Saints Thomas And Anthony Abbot für USD 62.500,00 (€ 57.902,54) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 25.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Giovanni Francesco Bezzi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Holy Family with Saints John the Baptist and Jerome im Juli 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 764.750,00 (€ 857.452,91).
