Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Henri Gaudier-Brzeska achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in November this year. In the Modern British and Irish Art auction, the work Owl sold for GBP 4,480.00 (€ 5,191.35) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,800.00. 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).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Henri Gaudier-Brzeska erzielte im November diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern British and Irish Art wurde die Arbeit Owl für GBP 4.480,00 (€ 5.191,35) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.800,00. 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).
