Upper estimate price exceeded by 53 %.
In October last year Bonhams in London held the auction Impressionist & Modern Art, which included the work Komposition 29.4 x 20.5cm (11 9/16 x 8 1/16in). (within the mount) by Hans Bellmer. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 5,355.00 (€ 6,238.52), 53% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hans Bellmer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Self-Portrait With Die Puppe in October 2012 with an auction result of USD 374,500.00 (€ 289,010.65).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 53 % übertroffen
Im Oktober letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Komposition 29.4 x 20.5cm (11 9/16 x 8 1/16in). (within the mount) von Hans Bellmer zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 5.355,00 (€ 6.238,52) und damit 53% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hans Bellmer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Self-Portrait With Die Puppe im Oktober 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 374.500,00 (€ 289.010,65).
