Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Piergiorgio Branzi could be acquired at Christies in London in June 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Masterworks of Italian Photography 1945-1975 From the Collection of Paolo Morello auction, the work Puerto Lumbreras, 1956 changed hands for GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,857.36) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Piergiorgio Branzi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Adriatico, which sold at auction in June 2010 for GBP 6,000.00 (€ 7,296.56).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Piergiorgio Branzi konnte im Juni 2012 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Masterworks of Italian Photography 1945-1975 From the Collection of Paolo Morello wechselte die Arbeit Puerto Lumbreras, 1956 für GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.857,36) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Piergiorgio Branzi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Adriatico beobachtet, die im Juni 2010 für GBP 6.000,00 (€ 7.296,56) versteigert wurde.
