The work Vonal-lum by Victor Vasarely was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction at Bonhams in London in October last year. It achieved a price of GBP 75,900.00 (€ 88,422.66), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 38%. Admittedly, works by Victor Vasarely have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Altaï Iii in February 2010 with an auction result of GBP 565,250.00 (€ 630,588.93).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 38 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Vonal-lum von Victor Vasarely wurde im Oktober letzten Jahres in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art bei Bonhams in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 75.900,00 (€ 88.422,66) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 38%. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Victor Vasarely auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Altaï Iii im Februar 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 565.250,00 (€ 630.588,93).
