Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Martyrdom of Saints Valerian, Tiburtius and Maximus (recto) by Pietro Sorri was sold in the Old Masters Part II: Paintings, Sculpture, Drawings and Watercolours auction at Christies in London in December this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 4,410.00 (€ 5,080.15) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Pietro Sorri have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Virgin And Child With Saint Michael And Saint Catherine in March 2018 with an auction result of EUR 23,750.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Martyrdom of Saints Valerian, Tiburtius and Maximus (recto) von Pietro Sorri wurde im Dezember diesen Jahres in der Auktion Old Masters Part II: Paintings, Sculpture, Drawings and Watercolours bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 4.410,00 (€ 5.080,15) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Pietro Sorri auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Virgin And Child With Saint Michael And Saint Catherine im März 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 23.750,00.
