Su FIRST Art this week we are able to give you some data on Italian art: the FIRSTonline magazine dedicated to the art and culture market reports the news that the value of the Italian art market in 2018, according to the data provided by the main art The auction at the Giornale dell'Arte amounts to 300.548.035 to EUR. This result derives from the realization of 514 auctions and about sixty of these auctions were organized online, demonstrating how much new technologies have invested even a traditional market such as that of art.
With a total of over thirty million euros in total turnover in 2018, the auction house The bridge wins the gold medal among the Italian auction houses with 30,8 million takings. The total number of auctions organized is equal to 26 events and which increase the result for the whole year by five million compared to 2017. The best-selling lot was a Wolfers Freres ring worth 750 thousand euros. To find out the rest of the podium, all you have to do is consult FIRST Arte.
