The work A prayer on the hill by Pietro Barucci was auctioned at Christies in London in January 2009. It achieved a price of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 6,753.98), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 33%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pietro Barucci - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Traghetto sul lago, which sold at auction in December 2001 for ITL 29,400,000.00 (€ 26,424.00).
