Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work L'homme au lavabo (after, Figure at a Washbasin 1976) (S. 3, T. 35) by Francis Bacon was sold in the Evening & Day Editions auction at Phillips in London in June last year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 9,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 9,450.00 (€ 10,978.21). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francis Bacon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Three Studies Of Lucian Freud in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 142,405,000.00 (€ 104,663,383.80).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit L'homme au lavabo (after, Figure at a Washbasin 1976) (S. 3, T. 35) von Francis Bacon wurde im Juni letzten Jahres in der Auktion Evening & Day Editions bei Phillips in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 9.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 9.450,00 (€ 10.978,21) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Francis Bacon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Three Studies Of Lucian Freud im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 142.405.000,00 (€ 104.663.383,80).
