Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Dog by Fernando Botero was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2018. The auction ended at the price of USD 225,000.00 (€ 198,710.59), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 175,000.00 – 225,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Fernando Botero achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Musicians in November this year with an auction result of USD 5,132,000.00 (€ 4,704,803.81).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Dog von Fernando Botero kam im November 2018 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 225.000,00 (€ 198.710,59) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 175.000,00 – 225.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Fernando Botero erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Musicians im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.132.000,00 (€ 4.704.803,81).
