Upper estimate price exceeded by 100 %.

This artwork by Guido Reni achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2016. In the Old Master & British Drawings auction, the work Cupid pleading with Venus for his bow and arrows sold for GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,882.16) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Guido Reni achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work David With The Head Of Goliath in July 2012 with an auction result of GBP 3,177,250.00 (€ 4,046,962.53).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 100 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Guido Reni erzielte im Juli 2016 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master & British Drawings wurde die Arbeit Cupid pleading with Venus for his bow and arrows für GBP 10.000,00 (€ 11.882,16) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Guido Reni erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit David With The Head Of Goliath im Juli 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.177.250,00 (€ 4.046.962,53).
