Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December last year Bonhams held the auction Deck the WallsPrints & Multiples, which included the work One plate, from Homely Girl, A Life by Louise Bourgeois. Here, the upper estimate of USD 800.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 892.50 (€ 834.27). 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Dezember letzten Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Deck the WallsPrints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit One plate, from Homely Girl, A Life von Louise Bourgeois zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 800,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 892,50 (€ 834,27) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Louise Bourgeois erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Spider im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 32.055.000,00 (€ 28.751.457,53).
