Upper estimate price exceeded by 58 %.
In November last year Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Le Jeune, A Collecting Legacy: The Amsterdam No Reserve Edit, which included the work The Ainu Tree by Louise Bourgeois. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 9,450.00 58% above the upper estimate. 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 um 58 % übertroffen
Im November letzten Jahres führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Le Jeune, A Collecting Legacy: The Amsterdam No Reserve Edit durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Ainu Tree von Louise Bourgeois zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 9.450,00 und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
