Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Le bouquet champêtre 26 1/4 x 18 in. (66.7 x 45.7 cm) framed 32 1/2 x 25 1/4 x 2 1/4 in. by Le Pho was sold in the Modern & Contemporary Art | Bonhams Skinner auction at Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts in November this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 40,960.00 (€ 37,550.42) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Le Pho achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Figures in a garden in April last year with an auction result of HKD 17,920,000.00 (€ 2,166,658.44).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Le bouquet champêtre 26 1/4 x 18 in. (66.7 x 45.7 cm) framed 32 1/2 x 25 1/4 x 2 1/4 in. von Le Pho wurde im November diesen Jahres in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary Art | Bonhams Skinner bei Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 40.960,00 (€ 37.550,42) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Le Pho erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Figures in a garden im April letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 17.920.000,00 (€ 2.166.658,44).
