Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.

NEW YORK, 1 February 2018 – Christopher Apostle, Head of Sotheby’s Old Master Paintings Department in New York, commented: “We are absolutely thrilled with the results of tonight’s sale, which saw varied and spirited bidding from international institutions, private collectors and the trade. All major schools are represented at the highest end of the auction, demonstrating strength across the diversity of our market – Italian, Spanish, German French, Flemish and Dutch pictures all commanded standout prices. We saw competition for both traditional scenes, such as the Canaletto

views and Lancret interior, as well as for arresting images like the two works by Cranach the Elder. The energy in the room felt really great and we look forward to carrying that into tomorrow’s Day Sale.”

Tonight’s sale was led by an impressive pair of Venetian views by Canaletto, which sold for $4.2 million (left, estimate $3/4 million). Most likely completed in England in the 1740s, the pair offers waterfront views of two of the most recognizable façades in La Serenissima: the Church of the Redentore and the Prisons of San Marco. While there are other known views of the Church of the Redentore by Canaletto, the present view of the Prisons of San Marco is a unique composition for the artist of which no other version is known.

A monumental painting by leading Italian Renaissance

master Titian and his workshop sold to an online bidder for $2.2 million (estimate $2/3 million). One of only two known versions of the subject by the artist, Saint Margaret was first recorded in the royal collection of King Charles I (1600-1649), where it was displayed alongside the King’s mostly highly prized works at Whitehall palace. Following the King's execution in 1649, much of the collection was sold quickly to raise funds for the state, while others were sold to pay off the King’s debt. Inventory recordings have confirmed the present work was sold

to royal plumber John Embry for £100.

Thirteen works on offer from the extraordinary private collection of J.E. Safra together brought $8.4 million, led by a pair of still-life paintings from the pioneering female painter Fede Galizia. Sold for $2.1 million, the present pair is a testament to the artist’s sensitive approach to subject matter and acute eye for detail (estimate $2/3 million).
