Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Aida, January 4, 1957 by Erté was sold in the Prints & MultiplesSummer Splash auction at Bonhams in New York in August this year. Here, the upper estimate of USD 1,800.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 2,048.00 (€ 1,889.47). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Erté achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Maquette de costumes et décors in April last year with an auction result of EUR 37,800.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Aida, January 4, 1957 von Erté wurde im August diesen Jahres in der Auktion Prints & MultiplesSummer Splash bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 1.800,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 2.048,00 (€ 1.889,47) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Erté erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Maquette de costumes et décors im April letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 37.800,00.
