The work Odalisque À La Boulle De Crystal by Georges Barbier was sold in the Impressionist & Modern Art | London Including Works from the Collection of Marina Picasso auction at Sothebys in London in April 2021. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,260.00 (€ 1,449.37), 58% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Georges Barbier achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Ida Rubinstein and Vaslav Nijinsky in Scheherazade in December 2020 with an auction result of GBP 107,100.00 (€ 119,640.25).

Die Arbeit Odalisque À La Boulle De Crystal von Georges Barbier wurde im April 2021 in der Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art | London Including Works from the Collection of Marina Picasso bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.260,00 (€ 1.449,37) und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Georges Barbier erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Ida Rubinstein and Vaslav Nijinsky in Scheherazade im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 107.100,00 (€ 119.640,25).
