Upper estimate price exceeded by 57 %.

In October 2000 Christies in New York held the auction Old Master Paintings, which included the work A trompe-l'oeil still life with a parrot on a book, figs, a portrait miniature of a turbaned man, a navigational chart, a comb and a magnifying glass on a tabletop by Sebastiano Lazzari. The »bidding war« ended at USD 23,500.00 (€ 27,692.67), 57% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Sebastiano Lazzari; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Pair Of Trompe L'Oeil Still Lifes sold at auction in January 2009 with the realized price of USD 68,500.00 (€ 53,498.91).
