Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Judith With The Head Of Holofernes by Giovanni Francesco Guerrieri was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 90,000.00 – 120,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 97,000.00 (€ 65,359.48) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Giovanni Francesco Guerrieri - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vertumnus Offering Fruits To Pomona, which sold at auction in May 2005 for EUR 144,000.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Judith With The Head Of Holofernes von Giovanni Francesco Guerrieri kam im Januar 2008 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 90.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 97.000,00 (€ 65.359,48) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Giovanni Francesco Guerrieri mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Vertumnus Offering Fruits To Pomona beobachtet, die im Mai 2005 für EUR 144.000,00 versteigert wurde.
