Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
The work Hockender Weiblicher Akt (Squatting Female Nude) by Gustav Klimt was sold in the Modern Discoveries auction at Sothebys in New York in March last year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 37,800.00 (€ 34,075.54), 51% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gustav Klimt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Birch Forest in November last year with an auction result of USD 104,585,000.00 (€ 101,312,602.93).

Die Arbeit Hockender Weiblicher Akt (Squatting Female Nude) von Gustav Klimt wurde im März letzten Jahres in der Auktion Modern Discoveries bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 37.800,00 (€ 34.075,54) und damit 51% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gustav Klimt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Birch Forest im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 104.585.000,00 (€ 101.312.602,93).
