In November 2005 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction TWENTIETH CENTURY ART INCLUDING BELGIAN ART, which included the work Calle de Flor by Gaston Bertrand. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 7,800.00 56% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gaston Bertrand - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Rouge Bleu et Vert #317, which sold at auction in March 2007 for USD 24,000.00 (€ 17,945.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 56 % übertroffen
Im November 2005 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion TWENTIETH CENTURY ART INCLUDING BELGIAN ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit Calle de Flor von Gaston Bertrand zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 7.800,00 und damit 56% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Gaston Bertrand mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Rouge Bleu et Vert #317 beobachtet, die im März 2007 für USD 24.000,00 (€ 17.945,27) versteigert wurde.
