Upper estimate price exceeded by 41 %.
The work The Annunciation, from The Life of the Virgin by Albrecht Dürer was auctioned at Bonhams in London in December this year. It achieved a price of GBP 7,040.00 (€ 8,109.81), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 41%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Albrecht Dürer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Christ Being Nailed To The Cross in January 2016 with an auction result of USD 874,000.00 (€ 806,868.54).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 41 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Annunciation, from The Life of the Virgin von Albrecht Dürer kam im Dezember diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 7.040,00 (€ 8.109,81) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 41%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Albrecht Dürer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Christ Being Nailed To The Cross im Januar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 874.000,00 (€ 806.868,54).
