Upper estimate price exceeded by 79 %.
This artwork by Gustav Klimt achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Paris in October 2021. In the Modernités auction, the work Kniender Halbakt, Studie for "Die Braut" (Kneeling Semi Nude, Study for "The Bride") sold for EUR 214,200.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 120,000.00. 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).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Gustav Klimt erzielte im Oktober 2021 bei Sothebys in Paris einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modernités wurde die Arbeit Kniender Halbakt, Studie for "Die Braut" (Kneeling Semi Nude, Study for "The Bride") für EUR 214.200,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 120.000,00. 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).
