Artwork auctioned at six times the upper estimate price

When the work Portrait Of Count Wladyslaw Jan Adam Puslowski (1801-1859), Circa 1825  by Pietro de Rossi was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 3,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than six times as high at GBP 20,000.00 (€ 22,559.39). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pietro de Rossi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait Of Count Alexei Fyodorovich Orlov, Later Prince Orlov (1786-1861), which sold at auction in November 2018 for GBP 62,500.00 (€ 70,498.10).

Kunstwerk zum Sechsfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Portrait Of Count Wladyslaw Jan Adam Puslowski (1801-1859), Circa 1825  von Pietro de Rossi im November 2018 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 3.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 20.000,00 (€ 22.559,39) mehr als sechsmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Pietro de Rossi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait Of Count Alexei Fyodorovich Orlov, Later Prince Orlov (1786-1861) beobachtet, die im November 2018 für GBP 62.500,00 (€ 70.498,10) versteigert wurde.
