In January 2008 Sothebys in New York held the auction Old Master Drawings, which included the work The Baptism Of Christ by Paolo Gerolamo Piola. The »bidding war« ended at USD 34,000.00 (€ 22,909.51), 70% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Paolo Gerolamo Piola - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work La Maddalena acquista unguenti per Cristo, which sold at auction in December 2002 for EUR 86,800.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis um 70 % übertroffen

Im Januar 2008 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Old Master Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Baptism Of Christ von Paolo Gerolamo Piola zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 34.000,00 (€ 22.909,51) und damit 70% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Paolo Gerolamo Piola mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit La Maddalena acquista unguenti per Cristo beobachtet, die im Dezember 2002 für EUR 86.800,00 versteigert wurde.
