FERNANDO BOTERO (B. 1932)
The Trapezist
signed and dated ‘Botero 07’ (lower left )
oil on canvas
82 x 56.5 cm. (32 1/4 x 22 1/4 in.)
Painted in 2007

Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In December last year Christies in Hong Kong held the auction 20th Century Art Day Sale, which included the work The Trapezist by Fernando Botero. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 3,276,000.00 (€ 392,581.04), 17% 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 leicht übertroffen

Im Dezember letzten Jahres führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion 20th Century Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Trapezist von Fernando Botero zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 3.276.000,00 (€ 392.581,04) und damit 17% 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).
