A top price for François Morellet
When the work French 2 Trames De Tirets 0° 90° by François Morellet was auctioned at Sothebys in Amsterdam in March 2010, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 30,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 14 times as high at EUR 432,750.00. This high result makes French 2 Trames De Tirets 0° 90° the most expensive artwork by François Morellet that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für François Morellet
Als die Arbeit French 2 Trames De Tirets 0° 90° von François Morellet im März 2010 bei Sothebys in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – EUR 30.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit EUR 432.750,00 mehr als 14-mal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht French 2 Trames De Tirets 0° 90° zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von François Morellet, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
