Sold at the lower estimate price
In June 2020 Christies in London held the auction Face Time: People in Art through the Ages, which included the work A caricature of Padre Mairè by Pier Leone Ghezzi. The result of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,202.65) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pier Leone Ghezzi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Paolo De Matteis In His Studio in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 91,000.00 (€ 58,453.24).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Juni 2020 führte Christies in London die Auktion Face Time: People in Art through the Ages durch, in der auch die Arbeit A caricature of Padre Mairè von Pier Leone Ghezzi zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.202,65) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pier Leone Ghezzi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Paolo De Matteis In His Studio im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 91.000,00 (€ 58.453,24).
