Upper estimate price exceeded by 65 %.

The work The Letter by Gilbert Gaul was sold in the American Paintings auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2007. The »bidding war« ended at USD 13,200.00 (€ 9,869.90), 65% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gilbert Gaul achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Song Of Victory in May 2010 with an auction result of USD 146,500.00 (€ 118,441.26).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 65 % übertroffen

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 13.200,00 (€ 9.869,90) und damit 65% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gilbert Gaul erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Song Of Victory im Mai 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 146.500,00 (€ 118.441,26).
