A top price for Giovanni Volpato
When the work Six wall sections / pilasters in the Raphael Loggias in the Vatican. by Giovanni Volpato was auctioned at Bukowski in Stockholm in December 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - SEK 30,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at SEK 125,000.00 (€ 12,192.97). This high result makes Six wall sections / pilasters in the Raphael Loggias in the Vatican. the most expensive artwork by Giovanni Volpato that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Giovanni Volpato
Als die Arbeit Six wall sections / pilasters in the Raphael Loggias in the Vatican. von Giovanni Volpato im Dezember 2021 bei Bukowski in Stockholm versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – SEK 30.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit SEK 125.000,00 (€ 12.192,97) mehr als viermal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Six wall sections / pilasters in the Raphael Loggias in the Vatican. zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Giovanni Volpato, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
