Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
In March last year Sothebys in London held the auction Modern & Contemporary Day Auction, which included the work Fleurs sur fond bleu (fragment) by Odilon Redon. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 52,920.00 (€ 62,742.62), 51% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Odilon Redon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le Pavot Noir in October last year with an auction result of USD 3,780,000.00 (€ 3,805,113.75).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Day Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit Fleurs sur fond bleu (fragment) von Odilon Redon zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 52.920,00 (€ 62.742,62) und damit 51% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Odilon Redon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le Pavot Noir im Oktober letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.780.000,00 (€ 3.805.113,75).
