Upper estimate price exceeded by 58 %.
The work Head Of A Man by Henri Gaudier-Brzeska was sold in the Refining Taste: Works Selected by Danny Katz auction at Sothebys in London in May 2020. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,273.02), 58% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henri Gaudier-Brzeska achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Homme Et Cheval in July 2013 with an auction result of GBP 254,500.00 (€ 290,810.61).

Die Arbeit Head Of A Man von Henri Gaudier-Brzeska wurde im Mai 2020 in der Auktion Refining Taste: Works Selected by Danny Katz bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 4.750,00 (€ 5.273,02) und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henri Gaudier-Brzeska erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Homme Et Cheval im Juli 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 254.500,00 (€ 290.810,61).
