Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2021 Sothebys in Paris held the auction Art Impressionniste et Moderne Day Sale, which included the work Contemplation by Baltasar Lobo. Here, the upper estimate of EUR 20,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for EUR 20,160.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Baltasar Lobo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pièce D'Eau in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 620,000.00 (€ 556,103.69).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2021 führte Sothebys in Paris die Auktion Art Impressionniste et Moderne Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Contemplation von Baltasar Lobo zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von EUR 20.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für EUR 20.160,00 einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Baltasar Lobo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pièce D'Eau im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 620.000,00 (€ 556.103,69).
