Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2006. In the Master Drawings from the Oppé Collection auction, the work An extensive landscape with a tree (recto); A landscape with a fortified town (verso) sold for GBP 2,640.00 (€ 3,918.09) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00. Admittedly, works by Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A classical river landscape with figures fishing in April 2005 with an auction result of GBP 12,000.00 (€ 17,761.75).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi erzielte im Dezember 2006 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Master Drawings from the Oppé Collection wurde die Arbeit An extensive landscape with a tree (recto); A landscape with a fortified town (verso) für GBP 2.640,00 (€ 3.918,09) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.200,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A classical river landscape with figures fishing im April 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.000,00 (€ 17.761,75).
