Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Two Reclining Figures, from Sketchbook 1980 (C. 669) by Henry Moore was sold in the Evening & Day Editions auction at Phillips in London in January 2024. It achieved a price of GBP 3,556.00 (€ 5,951.53), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 19%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Moore achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Reclining Figure: Festival in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 24,722,500.00 (€ 29,675,067.53).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Two Reclining Figures, from Sketchbook 1980 (C. 669) von Henry Moore wurde im Januar 2024 in der Auktion Evening & Day Editions bei Phillips in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 3.556,00 (€ 5.951,53) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 19%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Moore erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Reclining Figure: Festival im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 24.722.500,00 (€ 29.675.067,53).
