A top price for Niccolò Giolfino - as previously expected

The work Three scenes from the Life of Cato the Younger: Cato tries to kill himself with a dagger; The wounded Cato cured by the physician; and Cato's death by Niccolò Giolfino was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2010. It changed hands for a price of GBP 79,250.00 (€ 95,289.20) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 50,000.00 – 80,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Three scenes from the Life of Cato the Younger: Cato tries to kill himself with a dagger; The wounded Cato cured by the physician; and Cato's death is the most expensive artwork by Niccolò Giolfino that we have observed at auctions so far.
