Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Éléphant et la dame by Niki de Saint Phalle was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in March last year. The price achieved of USD 8,287.50 (€ 7,470.93) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 7,000.00 – 9,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Niki de Saint Phalle achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nana Danseuse Noire (Grande Danseuse Negresse) - Circa 1968 in December 2015 with an auction result of EUR 961,500.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Éléphant et la dame von Niki de Saint Phalle kam im März letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 8.287,50 (€ 7.470,93) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 7.000,00 – 9.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Niki de Saint Phalle erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nana Danseuse Noire (Grande Danseuse Negresse) - Circa 1968 im Dezember 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 961.500,00.
