Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In May last year Artcurial in Marrakech held the auction A Moroccan Spring, which included the work Les Amies Endormies, Circa 1933-1934 by Jacques Majorelle. Here, the upper estimate of MAD 3,600,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for MAD 3,838,800.00 (€ 382,771.04). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jacques Majorelle - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work La Kasbah Rouge (Freija), 1924, which sold at auction in June 2011 for EUR 1,280,450.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Artcurial in Marrakesch die Auktion A Moroccan Spring durch, in der auch die Arbeit Les Amies Endormies, Circa 1933-1934 von Jacques Majorelle zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von MAD 3.600.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für MAD 3.838.800,00 (€ 382.771,04) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Jacques Majorelle mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit La Kasbah Rouge (Freija), 1924 beobachtet, die im Juni 2011 für EUR 1.280.450,00 versteigert wurde.
