What does this mean?

The appraised work is an oil on canvas painting likely executed by Italian artist Filippo Marfori-Savini (1877-1952). The painting depicts a half-length portrait of a woman with a large hat. The artist exhibited across Italy and Europe and appears to have been based in Florence. The estimate provided is based on comparables recently offered and sold at auction. The appraised work's size, composition, condition (based on photographs provided), as well as the artist's current auction market were taken into consideration when determining the estimate. In many cases, pricing for similar examples available on the primary (retail) market vary, and are often higher than secondary (auction) market examples.
