Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Adoration Of The Magi by Spinello Aretino was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 200,000.00 – 300,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 125,000.00 (€ 140,669.19). 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 The Adoration Of The Magi von Spinello Aretino im Dezember 2017 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 125.000,00 (€ 140.669,19) 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).
