The work Ermina Writing The Name Of Tancred On A Tree by Pier Francesco Mola was sold in the Old Master and British Drawings auction at Christies in New York in January 2015. The »bidding war« ended at USD 81,250.00 (€ 71,966.34), 35% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pier Francesco Mola achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An artist and a youth in January 2002 with an auction result of USD 3,086,000.00 (€ 3,590,877.36).

Die Arbeit Ermina Writing The Name Of Tancred On A Tree von Pier Francesco Mola wurde im Januar 2015 in der Auktion Old Master and British Drawings bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 81.250,00 (€ 71.966,34) und damit 35% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pier Francesco Mola erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An artist and a youth im Januar 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.086.000,00 (€ 3.590.877,36).
