A top price for Vincenzo Marinelli - as previously expected
In December 2015 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European & Orientalist Art, which included the work The Transportation Of The Mahmal To Mecca by Vincenzo Marinelli. The auction ended at the price of GBP 30,000.00 (€ 40,738.56), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Transportation Of The Mahmal To Mecca is the most expensive artwork by Vincenzo Marinelli that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Dezember 2015 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European & Orientalist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Transportation Of The Mahmal To Mecca von Vincenzo Marinelli zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 30.000,00 (€ 40.738,56) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Transportation Of The Mahmal To Mecca das teuerste Kunstwerk von Vincenzo Marinelli, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
