Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.

The work Boletus, russulas and other mushrooms on a ledge by Paolo Porpora was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2004. It achieved a price of GBP 45,410.00 (€ 68,624.50), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 51%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Paolo Porpora - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A forest floor with a porcupine, rabbit, ducks, tortoises and a snake, which sold at auction in January 2024 for USD 189,000.00 (€ 165,180.91).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Boletus, russulas and other mushrooms on a ledge von Paolo Porpora kam im Juli 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 45.410,00 (€ 68.624,50) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 51%. Für andere Arbeiten von Paolo Porpora mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A forest floor with a porcupine, rabbit, ducks, tortoises and a snake beobachtet, die im Januar 2024 für USD 189.000,00 (€ 165.180,91) versteigert wurde.
