Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of a lady, traditionally identified as Alexandra Evichovna Demidov (1745-1778), three-quarter-length, as Cleopatra by Pompeo Batoni was sold in the Old Masters Evening Sale auction at Christies in London in December 2019. The price achieved of GBP 187,500.00 (€ 221,603.06) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 150,000.00 – 250,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pompeo Batoni achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Susanna And The Elders in February 2013 with an auction result of USD 11,394,500.00 (€ 8,712,057.50).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, traditionally identified as Alexandra Evichovna Demidov (1745-1778), three-quarter-length, as Cleopatra von Pompeo Batoni wurde im Dezember 2019 in der Auktion Old Masters Evening Sale bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 187.500,00 (€ 221.603,06) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 150.000,00 – 250.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pompeo Batoni erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Susanna And The Elders im Februar 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 11.394.500,00 (€ 8.712.057,50).
