Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Modern Evening Auction, which included the work Jeux (Nature morte aux cartes) by Fernand Léger. Here, the upper estimate of USD 3,000,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 3,438,000.00 (€ 3,203,802.07). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Fernand Léger achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Contraste de formes in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 70,062,500.00 (€ 58,885,947.22).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Modern Evening Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit Jeux (Nature morte aux cartes) von Fernand Léger zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 3.000.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 3.438.000,00 (€ 3.203.802,07) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Fernand Léger erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Contraste de formes im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 70.062.500,00 (€ 58.885.947,22).
