Upper estimate price exceeded by 74 %.
In February 2015 Christies in London held the auction Impressionist/Modern Works on Paper, which included the work Te fare Hymenee (Copy for Monfreid) by Paul Gauguin. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 104,500.00 (€ 144,089.98), 74% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paul Gauguin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Maternité II in November last year with an auction result of USD 105,730,000.00 (€ 102,421,776.62).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 74 % übertroffen
Im Februar 2015 führte Christies in London die Auktion Impressionist/Modern Works on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit Te fare Hymenee (Copy for Monfreid) von Paul Gauguin zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 104.500,00 (€ 144.089,98) und damit 74% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Paul Gauguin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Maternité II im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 105.730.000,00 (€ 102.421.776,62).
