Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
The work Linea di velocità + paesaggio by Giacomo Balla was auctioned at Bonhams in London in October last year. It achieved a price of GBP 24,225.00 (€ 28,221.86), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Giacomo Balla achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Automobile In Corsa in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 11,477,000.00 (€ 8,435,249.15).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Linea di velocità + paesaggio von Giacomo Balla kam im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 24.225,00 (€ 28.221,86) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 35%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Giacomo Balla erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Automobile In Corsa im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 11.477.000,00 (€ 8.435.249,15).
