The work Ride A Cock-Horse, From: Nursery Rhymes by Paula Rego was auctioned at Christies in London in September last year. It achieved a price of GBP 4,788.00 (€ 5,449.21), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 37%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paula Rego achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dancing Ostriches from Walt Disney's 'Fantasia' in October this year with an auction result of GBP 3,065,000.00 (€ 3,519,471.52).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Ride A Cock-Horse, From: Nursery Rhymes von Paula Rego kam im September letzten Jahres bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 4.788,00 (€ 5.449,21) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 37%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Paula Rego erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Dancing Ostriches from Walt Disney's 'Fantasia' im Oktober diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.065.000,00 (€ 3.519.471,52).
