Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work La Colombe (The Dove) (S. 115) by Fernand Léger was sold in the Editions & Works on Paper auction at Phillips in New York in October last year. It achieved a price of USD 3,024.00 (€ 3,044.09), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 21%. 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
Die Arbeit La Colombe (The Dove) (S. 115) von Fernand Léger wurde im Oktober letzten Jahres in der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper bei Phillips in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 3.024,00 (€ 3.044,09) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 21%. 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).
