Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
The work Majorette by Joan Miró was auctioned at Bonhams in London in June last year. It achieved a price of GBP 6,375.00 (€ 7,405.94), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 28%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joan Miró achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Peinture (Étoile Bleue) in June 2012 with an auction result of GBP 23,561,250.00 (€ 29,174,436.97).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Majorette von Joan Miró kam im Juni letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 6.375,00 (€ 7.405,94) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 28%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joan Miró erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Peinture (Étoile Bleue) im Juni 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 23.561.250,00 (€ 29.174.436,97).
