Auction result misses estimated price range
In February 2006 a collector was able to acquire the work Apollo Killing the Python, after Giulio Romano (actually after Peruzzi) (Bartsch 19) by Meister B mit dem Würfel for USD 90.00 (€ 75.47). This price was achieved in the auction Prints and Multiples at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 300.00 – 400.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Meister B mit dem Würfel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Saint Barbara (Bartsch 12) in September 2011 with an auction result of GBP 875.00 (€ 1,016.51).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Februar 2006 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Apollo Killing the Python, after Giulio Romano (actually after Peruzzi) (Bartsch 19) von Meister B mit dem Würfel für USD 90,00 (€ 75,47) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Prints and Multiples bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 300,00 – 400,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Meister B mit dem Würfel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Saint Barbara (Bartsch 12) im September 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 875,00 (€ 1.016,51).
