Upper estimate price exceeded by 36 %.
In October 2021 Christies held the auction First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online, which included the work Ha Ha Ha by Peter Saul. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 47,500.00 (€ 56,274.67), 36% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Peter Saul achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Human Dignity in May this year with an auction result of USD 819,000.00 (€ 768,725.36).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 36 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2021 führte Christies die Auktion First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Ha Ha Ha von Peter Saul zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 47.500,00 (€ 56.274,67) und damit 36% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Peter Saul erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Human Dignity im Mai diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 819.000,00 (€ 768.725,36).
