Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May 2016 Christies in New York held the auction Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale, which included the work Buste d'homme by Pablo Picasso. The »bidding war« ended at USD 3,077,000.00 (€ 2,763,358.78), 23% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pablo Picasso achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Les femmes d'Alger (Version 'O') in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 179,365,000.00 (€ 163,148,080.77).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2016 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Buste d'homme von Pablo Picasso zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 3.077.000,00 (€ 2.763.358,78) und damit 23% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pablo Picasso erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Les femmes d'Alger (Version 'O') im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 179.365.000,00 (€ 163.148.080,77).
