Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Saint Peter And Saint Agnes, A Pair by Spinello Aretino was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 150,000.00 – 200,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 137,500.00 (€ 123,329.45). Admittedly, works by Spinello Aretino have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Lamentation in July 2011 with an auction result of GBP 713,250.00 (€ 818,561.08).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Saint Peter And Saint Agnes, A Pair von Spinello Aretino im Mai 2019 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 150.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 137.500,00 (€ 123.329,45) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Spinello Aretino auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Lamentation im Juli 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 713.250,00 (€ 818.561,08).
