Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

The work La barre haute (The High Bar) by Daniel Buren was worth GBP 24,130.00 (€ 40,385.38) to a buyer in January 2024. This price was achieved in the auction Evening & Day Editions at Phillips in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 7,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Daniel Buren achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Peinture Aux Formes Indéfinies in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 2,175,000.00 (€ 1,950,847.61).
