Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale, which included the work Madonna And Child Surrounded By Angels by Neri di Bicci. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 62,500.00 (€ 56,341.84) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Neri di Bicci have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Martyrdom of Saint Januarius: panel from a predella in July 2008 with an auction result of GBP 325,250.00 (€ 413,233.79).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Januar 2020 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Madonna And Child Surrounded By Angels von Neri di Bicci zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 62.500,00 (€ 56.341,84) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Neri di Bicci auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Martyrdom of Saint Januarius: panel from a predella im Juli 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 325.250,00 (€ 413.233,79).
