Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Sacrifice Of Noah by Valerio Castello was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2015. The price achieved of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 33,948.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Admittedly, works by Valerio Castello 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 Holy Family With The Infant St John The Baptist in July 2009 with an auction result of GBP 169,250.00 (€ 192,048.02).

Die Arbeit The Sacrifice Of Noah von Valerio Castello kam im Dezember 2015 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion.
