Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Françoise Gilot achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in December 2021. In the Modern Art | New York auction, the work Aries - Woman sold for USD 52,920.00 (€ 46,757.38) - well above the upper estimate of USD 18,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Françoise Gilot achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Living Forest in December 2021 with an auction result of HKD 9,850,000.00 (€ 1,115,718.32).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Françoise Gilot erzielte im Dezember 2021 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern Art | New York wurde die Arbeit Aries - Woman für USD 52.920,00 (€ 46.757,38) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 18.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Françoise Gilot erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Living Forest im Dezember 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 9.850.000,00 (€ 1.115.718,32).
