Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Le Trani Episode by Louise Bourgeois was sold in the Dialogues: Modern and Contemporary Art auction at Christies in London in July 2020. It changed hands for a price of GBP 187,500.00 (€ 209,141.97) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 150,000.00 – 200,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louise Bourgeois achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Spider in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 32,055,000.00 (€ 28,751,457.53).
