A top price for Francis Bruguière - as previously expected
In April 2013 Christies in New York held the auction the deLIGHTed eye: Modernist Masterworks from a Private Collection, which included the work Experiment, From 'The Way', C. 1925 by Francis Bruguière. The price achieved of USD 123,750.00 (€ 93,977.83) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Experiment, From 'The Way', C. 1925 is the most expensive artwork by Francis Bruguière that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im April 2013 führte Christies in New York die Auktion the deLIGHTed eye: Modernist Masterworks from a Private Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Experiment, From 'The Way', C. 1925 von Francis Bruguière zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 123.750,00 (€ 93.977,83) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Experiment, From 'The Way', C. 1925 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Francis Bruguière, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
