Upper estimate price exceeded by 40 %.
In November last year Bonhams in New York held the auction Modern & Contemporary Prints & Multiples, which included the work Le Décaméron by Giovanni Boccaccio (20 works) by Salvador Dalí. The »bidding war« ended at USD 14,025.00 (€ 13,586.17), 40% above the upper estimate. 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).

Im November letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in New York die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Le Décaméron by Giovanni Boccaccio (20 works) von Salvador Dalí zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 14.025,00 (€ 13.586,17) und damit 40% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
