U. Ongania (Italian, 20th Century)
Before the Piazzetta, San Marco, Venice
signed 'U. Ongania' (lower right)
watercolour on paper
14 5/8 x 23 in. (37.2 x 58.4 cm.)

Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Before The Piazzetta, San Marco, Venice by Umberto Ongania was sold in the 19th Century European Art Including Russian Pictures and a Symbolist Collection with a Richard Wagner section auction at Christies in London in June 2006. It achieved a price of GBP 1,800.00 (€ 2,604.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Umberto Ongania - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Decorated gondolas in the Bacino di San Marco, which sold at auction in April 2001 for GBP 3,290.00 (€ 5,303.89).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Before The Piazzetta, San Marco, Venice von Umberto Ongania wurde im Juni 2006 in der Auktion 19th Century European Art Including Russian Pictures and a Symbolist Collection with a Richard Wagner section bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 1.800,00 (€ 2.604,57) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 20%. Für andere Arbeiten von Umberto Ongania mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Decorated gondolas in the Bacino di San Marco beobachtet, die im April 2001 für GBP 3.290,00 (€ 5.303,89) versteigert wurde.
