Upper estimate price exceeded by 27 %.
In November last year Bonhams in London held the auction The Astute EyeContemporary Art from a Private London Collector Online, which included the work Europe and the Bull by Fernando Botero. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 44,400.00 (€ 51,449.46), 27% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Fernando Botero achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Musicians in November this year with an auction result of USD 5,132,000.00 (€ 4,704,803.81).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 27 % übertroffen
Im November letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion The Astute EyeContemporary Art from a Private London Collector Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Europe and the Bull von Fernando Botero zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 44.400,00 (€ 51.449,46) und damit 27% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Fernando Botero erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Musicians im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.132.000,00 (€ 4.704.803,81).
