Upper estimate price exceeded by 68 %.
The work L'arbre de vie (The Tree of Life) by Niki de Saint Phalle was auctioned at Christies in Brussels in October this year. It achieved a price of GBP 20,160.00 (€ 23,149.28), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 68%. 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.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit L'arbre de vie (The Tree of Life) von Niki de Saint Phalle kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Christies in Brüssel zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 20.160,00 (€ 23.149,28) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 68%. 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.
