Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
In July 2020 Phillips in New York held the auction Editions & Works on Paper, which included the work Les Caprices de Goya de Dali (Dali's 'Caprichos' by Goya): 10 plates by Salvador Dalí. The »bidding war« ended at USD 40,000.00 (€ 33,973.16), 33% 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Im Juli 2020 führte Phillips in New York die Auktion Editions & Works on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit Les Caprices de Goya de Dali (Dali's 'Caprichos' by Goya): 10 plates von Salvador Dalí zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 40.000,00 (€ 33.973,16) und damit 33% 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).
