Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In July 2015 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & British Drawings, which included the work River Landscape With A Boatman And Ruined Castle by Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 6,250.00 (€ 8,860.40). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A classical river landscape with figures fishing, which sold at auction in April 2005 for GBP 12,000.00 (€ 17,761.75).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juli 2015 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & British Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit River Landscape With A Boatman And Ruined Castle von Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 6.250,00 (€ 8.860,40) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Giovanni Francesco Grimaldi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A classical river landscape with figures fishing beobachtet, die im April 2005 für GBP 12.000,00 (€ 17.761,75) versteigert wurde.
