Upper estimate price exceeded by 58 %.
In June 2019 Phillips in London held the auction Edition Schellmann: Fifty Are Better Than One, which included the work Vis-à-vis (Hera), from Wall Works by Giulio Paolini. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 47,500.00 (€ 53,397.04), 58% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Giulio Paolini achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Indice Delle Opere Inscritto In Un Motivo Decorativo in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 629,000.00 (€ 595,531.15).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 58 % übertroffen
Im Juni 2019 führte Phillips in London die Auktion Edition Schellmann: Fifty Are Better Than One durch, in der auch die Arbeit Vis-à-vis (Hera), from Wall Works von Giulio Paolini zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 47.500,00 (€ 53.397,04) und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Giulio Paolini erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Indice Delle Opere Inscritto In Un Motivo Decorativo im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 629.000,00 (€ 595.531,15).
