Upper estimate price exceeded by 68 %.
The work Sans Titre by Alexander Calder was sold in the Art Contemporain Day Auction auction at Sothebys in Paris in June last year. It achieved a price of EUR 75,600.00 exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 68 %. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexander Calder achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Poisson volant (Flying Fish) in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 25,925,000.00 (€ 19,006,598.24).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Sans Titre von Alexander Calder wurde im Juni letzten Jahres in der Auktion Art Contemporain Day Auction bei Sothebys in Paris versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von EUR 75.600,00 und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 68 %. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alexander Calder erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Poisson volant (Flying Fish) im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 25.925.000,00 (€ 19.006.598,24).
