Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Two Evangelists; A Pope Saint; A Bearded Saint; Saint Catherine Of Siena; And A Male Domincan Saint, Possibly Thomas Acquinas by Giusto de' Menabuoi was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2008, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 60,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 349,000.00 (€ 235,159.36). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Giusto de' Menabuoi; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Two Evangelists; Saint Gregory The Great; Saint Jerome; Saint Margaret Of Hungary; Saint Dominic sold at auction in May 2019 with the realized price of USD 375,000.00 (€ 336,353.04).

Als die Arbeit Two Evangelists; A Pope Saint; A Bearded Saint; Saint Catherine Of Siena; And A Male Domincan Saint, Possibly Thomas Acquinas von Giusto de' Menabuoi im Januar 2008 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches.

Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Giusto de' Menabuoi; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Two Evangelists; Saint Gregory The Great; Saint Jerome; Saint Margaret Of Hungary; Saint Dominic im Mai 2019 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 375.000,00 (€ 336.353,04).
