Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In June 2021 Sothebys in London held the auction Impressionist and Modern Art Day Sale, which included the work Étude pour "Printemps Cosmique I" by František Kupka. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 150,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 151,200.00 (€ 176,187.31). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by František Kupka achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le Jaillissement II (Tryskání II) in March 2021 with an auction result of GBP 7,551,600.00 (€ 8,871,184.71).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juni 2021 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Impressionist and Modern Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Étude pour "Printemps Cosmique I" von František Kupka zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 150.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 151.200,00 (€ 176.187,31) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von František Kupka erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le Jaillissement II (Tryskání II) im März 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.551.600,00 (€ 8.871.184,71).
