Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2016 Sothebys in New York held the auction Master Paintings Evening Sale, which included the work The Holy Trinity And Saints In Glory, A Sketch For A Ceiling by Sebastiano Conca. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 140,000.00 – 180,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 150,000.00 (€ 138,478.58) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Sebastiano Conca - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of George Parker, 2nd Earl of Macclesfield, PRS, three-quarter-length, standing in front of the Colosseum, right hand resting on a map of Italy, a statue of the Apollo Belvedere on a giltwood and marble table, which sold at auction in December last year for GBP 378,000.00 (€ 426,725.18).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Januar 2016 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Master Paintings Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Holy Trinity And Saints In Glory, A Sketch For A Ceiling von Sebastiano Conca zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 140.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 150.000,00 (€ 138.478,58) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Sebastiano Conca mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of George Parker, 2nd Earl of Macclesfield, PRS, three-quarter-length, standing in front of the Colosseum, right hand resting on a map of Italy, a statue of the Apollo Belvedere on a giltwood and marble table beobachtet, die im Dezember letzten Jahres für GBP 378.000,00 (€ 426.725,18) versteigert wurd
