Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Tommaso Manzuoli achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in January 2000. In the Important Old Master Drawings auction, the work The Resurrection: Design for a frescoed altarpiece and altar flanked with a kneeling monastic female saint and a kneeling donatrix sold for USD 32,200.00 (€ 33,001.95) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Tommaso Manzuoli - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of a man, half-length, in a grey coat and mantle, holding a handkerchief, which sold at auction in December 2012 for GBP 73,250.00 (€ 90,337.59).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Tommaso Manzuoli erzielte im Januar 2000 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Important Old Master Drawings wurde die Arbeit The Resurrection: Design for a frescoed altarpiece and altar flanked with a kneeling monastic female saint and a kneeling donatrix für USD 32.200,00 (€ 33.001,95) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Tommaso Manzuoli mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of a man, half-length, in a grey coat and mantle, holding a handkerchief beobachtet, die im Dezember 2012 für GBP 73.250,00 (€ 90.337,59) versteigert wurde.
