Upper estimate price exceeded by 60 %.
The work Study for Portrait of John Edwards (Sabatier 22) by Francis Bacon was sold in the Prints & Multiples auction at Sothebys in New York in April last year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 23,940.00 (€ 22,719.94), 60% above the upper estimate. 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).

Die Arbeit Study for Portrait of John Edwards (Sabatier 22) von Francis Bacon wurde im April letzten Jahres in der Auktion Prints & Multiples bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 23.940,00 (€ 22.719,94) und damit 60% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
