Upper estimate price exceeded by 52 %.
In April this year Bonhams held the auction Impressionist & Modern Art, which included the work Rythme couleur, Opus 1245 by Sonia Delaunay. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 75,900.00 (€ 86,501.25), 52% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sonia Delaunay achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Prismes électriques in October 2017 with an auction result of EUR 1,567,500.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 52 % übertroffen
Im April diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Rythme couleur, Opus 1245 von Sonia Delaunay zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 75.900,00 (€ 86.501,25) und damit 52% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sonia Delaunay erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Prismes électriques im Oktober 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 1.567.500,00.
