A top price for Pierre-Athanase Chauvin
When the work A View Of The Pines Of The Villa Borghese From The Back Of The Villa Medicis by Pierre-Athanase Chauvin was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2008, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 40,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 145,000.00 (€ 97,702.31). This high result makes A View Of The Pines Of The Villa Borghese From The Back Of The Villa Medicis the most expensive artwork by Pierre-Athanase Chauvin that we have observed at auctions so far.
