The work Bédouin sur l’âne (Bedouin on a donkey) by Jean Dubuffet was auctioned at Christies in London in February 2015. It achieved a price of GBP 26,585.00 (€ 36,656.77), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 48%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jean Dubuffet achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Paris Polka in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 24,805,000.00 (€ 22,562,306.71).

Die Arbeit Bédouin sur l’âne (Bedouin on a donkey) von Jean Dubuffet kam im Februar 2015 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 26.585,00 (€ 36.656,77) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 48%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jean Dubuffet erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Paris Polka im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 24.805.000,00 (€ 22.562.306,71).
