Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Concetto spaziale, Attesa by Lucio Fontana was auctioned at Sothebys in Paris in June last year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of EUR 1,100,000.00 – 1,800,000.00, the actual price achieved of EUR 1,245,000.00 could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lucio Fontana achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Concetto Spaziale, La Fine Di Dio in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 29,173,000.00 (€ 27,620,715.77).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Concetto spaziale, Attesa von Lucio Fontana kam im Juni letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in Paris zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von EUR 1.100.000,00 – 1.800.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von EUR 1.245.000,00 konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lucio Fontana erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Concetto Spaziale, La Fine Di Dio im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 29.173.000,00 (€ 27.620.715,77).
