Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Salvador Dalí achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in June 2017. In the Impressionist and Modern Works on Paper auction, the work André Breton le Tamanoir sold for GBP 46,250.00 (€ 52,670.12) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 18,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Salvador Dalí achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait De Paul Éluard in February 2011 with an auction result of GBP 13,481,250.00 (€ 15,879,784.58).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Salvador Dalí erzielte im Juni 2017 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Impressionist and Modern Works on Paper wurde die Arbeit André Breton le Tamanoir für GBP 46.250,00 (€ 52.670,12) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 18.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Salvador Dalí erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait De Paul Éluard im Februar 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 13.481.250,00 (€ 15.879.784,58).
