Artwork auctioned at eight times the upper estimate price
When the work A Capriccio With A Temple On The Left And A Triumphal Arch In The Background by Pietro di Gottardo Gonzaga was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2015, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 1,200.00 but the actual price achieved was more than eight times as high at GBP 10,000.00 (€ 13,579.52). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Pietro di Gottardo Gonzaga; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Two designs for the stage: The courtyard of a palace; and The fortified moat of a castle sold at auction in January 2000 with the realized price of USD 18,400.00 (€ 18,858.26).
Kunstwerk zum Achtfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit A Capriccio With A Temple On The Left And A Triumphal Arch In The Background von Pietro di Gottardo Gonzaga im Dezember 2015 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 1.200,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 10.000,00 (€ 13.579,52) mehr als achtmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Pietro di Gottardo Gonzaga; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Two designs for the stage: The courtyard of a palace; and The fortified moat of a castle im Januar 2000 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 18.400,00 (€ 18.858,26).
