Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
The work Tête au turban by Henri Matisse was sold in the Modern Day Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in May last year. It achieved a price of USD 60,480.00 (€ 56,360.08), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 51%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henri Matisse achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Odalisque couchée aux magnolias in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 80,750,000.00 (€ 69,194,515.85).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Tête au turban von Henri Matisse wurde im Mai letzten Jahres in der Auktion Modern Day Auction bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 60.480,00 (€ 56.360,08) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 51%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henri Matisse erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Odalisque couchée aux magnolias im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 80.750.000,00 (€ 69.194.515,85).
