Upper estimate price exceeded by 76 %.

This artwork by Michelangelo Cerquozzi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May 2001. In the OLD MASTER PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS AND FRAMES auction, the work The Education of the Virgin sold for USD 10,575.00 (€ 12,507.39) - well above the upper estimate of USD 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by Michelangelo Cerquozzi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work King Midas in December 2007 with an auction result of GBP 72,500.00 (€ 98,515.20).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 76 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Michelangelo Cerquozzi erzielte im Mai 2001 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion OLD MASTER PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS AND FRAMES wurde die Arbeit The Education of the Virgin für USD 10.575,00 (€ 12.507,39) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 6.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Michelangelo Cerquozzi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit King Midas im Dezember 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 72.500,00 (€ 98.515,20).
