Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Reclining Nude; Juggler by Henri Gaudier-Brzeska was auctioned at Sothebys in London in September 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 2,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 6,048.00 (€ 6,668.90). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henri Gaudier-Brzeska achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Homme Et Cheval in July 2013 with an auction result of GBP 254,500.00 (€ 290,810.61).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Reclining Nude; Juggler von Henri Gaudier-Brzeska im September 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 2.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 6.048,00 (€ 6.668,90) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henri Gaudier-Brzeska erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Homme Et Cheval im Juli 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 254.500,00 (€ 290.810,61).
