Artwork auctioned at ten times the upper estimate price

When the work Le Phoenix by Henri Léopold Lévy was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 5,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than ten times as high at USD 52,500.00 (€ 47,923.32). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Henri Léopold Lévy; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Aphrodite And Eros; And Dionysus And Ariadne sold at auction in September 2015 with the realized price of GBP 60,000.00 (€ 81,254.26).

Kunstwerk zum Zehnfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Le Phoenix von Henri Léopold Lévy im April 2020 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 5.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 52.500,00 (€ 47.923,32) mehr als zehnmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Henri Léopold Lévy; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Aphrodite And Eros; And Dionysus And Ariadne im September 2015 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 60.000,00 (€ 81.254,26).
