Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Standing Male Nude Seen From Behind by Pietro Faccini was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2008, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 27,400.00 (€ 18,462.37). Other works by Pietro Faccini have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in December 2018 by the work Allegory of the Immaculate Conception at GBP 31,250.00 (€ 34,815.27).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Standing Male Nude Seen From Behind von Pietro Faccini im Januar 2008 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 27.400,00 (€ 18.462,37) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Pietro Faccini wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Dezember 2018 die Arbeit Allegory of the Immaculate Conception mit GBP 31.250,00 (€ 34.815,27).
