Auction result well in line with expectations

In November 2021 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction A Thousand Roads: A Private Collection in Rome, which included the work Fonction de courbes by Georges Vantongerloo. It changed hands for a price of EUR 375,000.00 achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of EUR 300,000.00 – 400,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Georges Vantongerloo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Composition émanante de l'équation y=-ax2+bx+18 avec accord de orangé, vert, violet, which sold at auction in February 2018 for GBP 1,208,750.00 (€ 1,365,448.98).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im November 2021 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion A Thousand Roads: A Private Collection in Rome durch, in der auch die Arbeit Fonction de courbes von Georges Vantongerloo zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von EUR 375.000,00 den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 300.000,00 – 400.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Georges Vantongerloo mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Composition émanante de l'équation y=-ax2+bx+18 avec accord de orangé, vert, violet beobachtet, die im Februar 2018 für GBP 1.208.750,00 (€ 1.365.448,98) versteigert wurde.
