Upper estimate price exceeded by 64 %.
In March last year Christies in London held the auction Impressionist and Modern Art Day and Works on Paper Sale, which included the work Étude pour le tableau 'Les Rivales' by Paul Delvaux. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 163,800.00 (€ 194,203.34), 64% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paul Delvaux achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le Miroir in February 2016 with an auction result of GBP 7,317,000.00 (€ 9,375,831.98).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 64 % übertroffen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Christies in London die Auktion Impressionist and Modern Art Day and Works on Paper Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Étude pour le tableau 'Les Rivales' von Paul Delvaux zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 163.800,00 (€ 194.203,34) und damit 64% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Paul Delvaux erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le Miroir im Februar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.317.000,00 (€ 9.375.831,98).
