Étude de visage
Signed Lempicka (lower center)

Estate of the artist | Christie Tamara Foxhall, Houston (by descent from the above) | Acquired from the above in 1992

Upper estimate price exceeded by 80 %.

This artwork by Tamara de Lempicka achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in September 2021. In the Impressionist & Modern Art auction, the work Étude de visage sold for USD 12,600.00 (€ 10,883.65) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tamara de Lempicka achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait de Marjorie Ferry in February 2020 with an auction result of GBP 16,380,000.00 (€ 18,984,457.14).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 80 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Tamara de Lempicka erzielte im September 2021 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art wurde die Arbeit Étude de visage für USD 12.600,00 (€ 10.883,65) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tamara de Lempicka erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait de Marjorie Ferry im Februar 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 16.380.000,00 (€ 18.984.457,14).
