Sold at the lower estimate price
In January 2015 Christies in New York held the auction Old Master Paintings & Sculpture Part II, which included the work A Spoonbill, Woodcock, And Game Birds by Pietro Navarra. The result of USD 10,000.00 (€ 8,857.40) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Admittedly, works by Pietro Navarra have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Melons, Grapes, Peaches And Figs On The Ground And A Corinthian Capital, A Glass And Flask On A Pewter Tray And Fruit In A Glass Bowl, All Atop A Carpet Set On A Marble Ledge With A Classical Building Beyond in April 2006 with an auction result of USD 66,000.00 (€ 52,281.37).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Januar 2015 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Old Master Paintings & Sculpture Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Spoonbill, Woodcock, And Game Birds von Pietro Navarra zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 8.857,40) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Pietro Navarra auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Melons, Grapes, Peaches And Figs On The Ground And A Corinthian Capital, A Glass And Flask On A Pewter Tray And Fruit In A Glass Bowl, All Atop A Carpet Set On A Marble Ledge With A Classical Building Beyond im April 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 66.000,00 (€ 52.281,37).
