A top price for Giovanni Maria Viani - as previously expected
The work The Circumcision by Giovanni Maria Viani was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in February 2013. The price achieved of USD 182,500.00 (€ 139,536.66) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 150,000.00 – 200,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Circumcision is the most expensive artwork by Giovanni Maria Viani that we have observed at auctions so far.
