A top price for Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli
When the work The Virgin And Child By A Window: "Madonna Of The Cherries" by Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2011, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 900,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 2,770,500.00 (€ 2,020,051.04). This high result makes The Virgin And Child By A Window: "Madonna Of The Cherries" the most expensive artwork by Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli
Als die Arbeit The Virgin And Child By A Window: "Madonna Of The Cherries" von Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli im Januar 2011 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 900.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 2.770.500,00 (€ 2.020.051,04) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht The Virgin And Child By A Window: "Madonna Of The Cherries" zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
