Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Saint Benedict Receiving Maurus And Placidus by Raffael was sold in the Renaissance auction at Christies in New York in January 2013. The price achieved of USD 1,202,500.00 (€ 885,232.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000,000.00 – 1,500,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Raffael achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Head Of A Young Apostle in December 2012 with an auction result of GBP 29,721,250.00 (€ 36,654,555.40).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Saint Benedict Receiving Maurus And Placidus von Raffael wurde im Januar 2013 in der Auktion Renaissance bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.202.500,00 (€ 885.232,63) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000.000,00 – 1.500.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Raffael erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Head Of A Young Apostle im Dezember 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 29.721.250,00 (€ 36.654.555,40).
