Untitled
signed and dated upper right A. Lesage 1926

Sold at the upper estimate price

This work without title by Augustin Lesage was auctioned at Christies in New York in January 2008. The auction ended at the price of USD 20,000.00 (€ 13,476.18), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Augustin Lesage achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled, 1933 in February last year with an auction result of USD 156,250.00 (€ 139,210.62).

Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis

Diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Augustin Lesage kam im Januar 2008 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 13.476,18) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Augustin Lesage erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled, 1933 im Februar letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 156.250,00 (€ 139.210,62).
