A top price for Giulio Paolini
When the work Indice Delle Opere Inscritto In Un Motivo Decorativo by Giulio Paolini was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2015, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 120,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 629,000.00 (€ 595,531.15). This high result makes Indice Delle Opere Inscritto In Un Motivo Decorativo the most expensive artwork by Giulio Paolini that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Giulio Paolini
Als die Arbeit Indice Delle Opere Inscritto In Un Motivo Decorativo von Giulio Paolini im November 2015 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 120.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 629.000,00 (€ 595.531,15) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Indice Delle Opere Inscritto In Un Motivo Decorativo zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Giulio Paolini, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
