Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
The work Vers la gauche (Towards the Left) (D. 461) by Joan Miró was sold in the Evening & Day Editions auction at Phillips in London in January this year. It achieved a price of GBP 8,820.00 (€ 10,010.84), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 47%. 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 47 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Vers la gauche (Towards the Left) (D. 461) von Joan Miró wurde im Januar diesen Jahres in der Auktion Evening & Day Editions bei Phillips in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 8.820,00 (€ 10.010,84) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 47%. 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).
