Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Placido Costanzi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2008. In the Important Old Master & British PicturesDay Sale Including Property From The Collection Of The Princely House Of Liechtenstein auction, the work The Rape of the Sabine Women sold for GBP 43,250.00 (€ 54,949.61) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Placido Costanzi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Narcissus And Echo, which sold at auction in June 2007 for USD 204,000.00 (€ 150,887.57).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Placido Costanzi erzielte im Juli 2008 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Important Old Master & British PicturesDay Sale Including Property From The Collection Of The Princely House Of Liechtenstein wurde die Arbeit The Rape of the Sabine Women für GBP 43.250,00 (€ 54.949,61) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 20.000,00.
