A top price for Gregorio de Ferrari - as previously expected

The work The Rest on the Flight to Egypt by Gregorio de Ferrari was sold in the Important Old Master & British PicturesEvening Sale auction at Christies in London in July 2008. The price achieved of GBP 121,250.00 (€ 154,049.49) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Rest on the Flight to Egypt is the most expensive artwork by Gregorio de Ferrari that we have observed at auctions so far.
