Sold at the lower estimate price
In June 2017 Christies in London held the auction Impressionist and Modern Art Day Sale, which included the work Etude pour La Grand Portugaise by Robert Delaunay. The result of GBP 100,000.00 (€ 113,881.34) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Delaunay achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tour Eiffel in February 2012 with an auction result of GBP 3,737,250.00 (€ 4,462,375.53).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Juni 2017 führte Christies in London die Auktion Impressionist and Modern Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Etude pour La Grand Portugaise von Robert Delaunay zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 100.000,00 (€ 113.881,34) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 100.000,00 – 150.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Delaunay erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tour Eiffel im Februar 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.737.250,00 (€ 4.462.375,53).
