Auction result well in line with expectations

In November 2007 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Old Master Pictures and Drawings, which included the work The Penitent Saint Mary Magdalene by Girolamo Pesci. It changed hands for a price of EUR 14,650.00 achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of EUR 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Girolamo Pesci - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Rebecca at the Well, which sold at auction in October 2003 for GBP 27,485.00 (€ 40,144.34).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im November 2007 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Old Master Pictures and Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Penitent Saint Mary Magdalene von Girolamo Pesci zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von EUR 14.650,00 den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Girolamo Pesci mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Rebecca at the Well beobachtet, die im Oktober 2003 für GBP 27.485,00 (€ 40.144,34) versteigert wurde.
