In November 2004 Christies in London held the auction MARITIME AND NAVAL BATTLES (PICTURES), which included the work The Royal Yacht Squadron'S Steam Yacht Sapphire Cruising In The Mediterranean Off Naples by Luca Papaluca. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,868.00 (€ 4,125.60), 59% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Luca Papaluca - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Royal Yacht Squadron'S Steam Yacht Venetia In Neapolitan Waters (Illustrated); And At Sea, which sold at auction in May 2006 for GBP 5,760.00 (€ 8,407.72).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 59 % übertroffen
Im November 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion MARITIME AND NAVAL BATTLES (PICTURES) durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Royal Yacht Squadron'S Steam Yacht Sapphire Cruising In The Mediterranean Off Naples von Luca Papaluca zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.868,00 (€ 4.125,60) und damit 59% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Luca Papaluca mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Royal Yacht Squadron'S Steam Yacht Venetia In Neapolitan Waters (Illustrated); And At Sea beobachtet, die im Mai 2006 für GBP 5.760,00 (€ 8.407,72) versteigert wurde.
