Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Lamentation by Lucas Cranach I was sold in the Old Masters auction at Christies in New York in October 2020. The price achieved of USD 1,470,000.00 (€ 1,262,127.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,200,000.00 – 1,800,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lucas Cranach I achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Bocca Della Verità (The Mouth Of Truth) in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 9,333,000.00 (€ 13,231,059.30).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Lamentation von Lucas Cranach I wurde im Oktober 2020 in der Auktion Old Masters bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.470.000,00 (€ 1.262.127,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.200.000,00 – 1.800.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lucas Cranach I erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Bocca Della Verità (The Mouth Of Truth) im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 9.333.000,00 (€ 13.231.059,30).
