Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The View from the Bottom of the Well (MoMA 568-576) by Louise Bourgeois was auctioned at Phillips in New York in April last year. It changed hands for a price of USD 27,720.00 (€ 26,307.30) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The View from the Bottom of the Well (MoMA 568-576) von Louise Bourgeois kam im April letzten Jahres bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 27.720,00 (€ 26.307,30) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. 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).
