Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Seated Figure by Francis Bacon was sold in the Prints auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2012. It changed hands for a price of USD 22,500.00 (€ 17,008.09) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 18,000.00 – 24,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francis Bacon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Three Studies Of Lucian Freud in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 142,405,000.00 (€ 104,663,383.80).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Seated Figure von Francis Bacon wurde im April 2012 in der Auktion Prints bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 22.500,00 (€ 17.008,09) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 18.000,00 – 24.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Francis Bacon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Three Studies Of Lucian Freud im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 142.405.000,00 (€ 104.663.383,80).
