Upper estimate price exceeded by 56 %.
In November 2006 Christies in London held the auction Maritime & Naval Battles (Pictures), which included the work Grand Harbour, Valetta, Malta (Illustrated); And Fishing Boats Off Valetta Harbour, Malta by Vincenzo d'Esposito. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 780.00 (€ 1,158.32), 56% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Vincenzo d'Esposito; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot A view of Valletta Harbour sold at auction in March last year with the realized price of GBP 1,785.00 (€ 2,116.32).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 56 % übertroffen
Im November 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion Maritime & Naval Battles (Pictures) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Grand Harbour, Valetta, Malta (Illustrated); And Fishing Boats Off Valetta Harbour, Malta von Vincenzo d'Esposito zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 780,00 (€ 1.158,32) und damit 56% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Vincenzo d'Esposito; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit A view of Valletta Harbour im März letzten Jahres mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 1.785,00 (€ 2.116,32).
