A top price for Raffaele Frigerio - as previously expected
The work Sharing a joke; and Up to mischief by Raffaele Frigerio was sold in the British and Continental Pictures and Works on Paper auction at Christies in London in January 2003. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 822.50 (€ 1,259.75) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Sharing a joke; and Up to mischief is the most expensive artwork by Raffaele Frigerio that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Sharing a joke; and Up to mischief von Raffaele Frigerio wurde im Januar 2003 in der Auktion British and Continental Pictures and Works on Paper bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 822,50 (€ 1.259,75) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Sharing a joke; and Up to mischief das teuerste Kunstwerk von Raffaele Frigerio, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
