Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Drap d'or, table, for Hélène Martini, May 30, 1962 by Erté was sold in the Prints & MultiplesSummer Splash auction at Bonhams in New York in August this year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 2,880.00 (€ 2,657.07), 15% above the upper estimate. 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 Drap d'or, table, for Hélène Martini, May 30, 1962 von Erté wurde im August diesen Jahres in der Auktion Prints & MultiplesSummer Splash bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 2.880,00 (€ 2.657,07) und damit 15% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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.
