Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
In March last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Modern Discoveries, which included the work Untitled (Self-Portrait) by Raphael Soyer. The »bidding war« ended at USD 6,300.00 (€ 5,679.26), 26% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Raphael Soyer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Passerby in December 2009 with an auction result of USD 86,500.00 (€ 60,354.45).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Modern Discoveries durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (Self-Portrait) von Raphael Soyer zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 6.300,00 (€ 5.679,26) und damit 26% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Raphael Soyer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Passerby im Dezember 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 86.500,00 (€ 60.354,45).
