A top price for Jean-Claude Farhi
When the work Unique Dining Table by Jean-Claude Farhi was auctioned at Sothebys in London in May 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 6,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 30,000.00 (€ 37,378.68). This high result makes Unique Dining Table the most expensive artwork by Jean-Claude Farhi that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Jean-Claude Farhi
Als die Arbeit Unique Dining Table von Jean-Claude Farhi im Mai 2012 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 6.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 30.000,00 (€ 37.378,68) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Unique Dining Table zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Jean-Claude Farhi, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
