Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Jean Puy achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in November 2020. In the Impressionist & Modern Art Day Sale auction, the work Femme Endormie sold for USD 37,800.00 (€ 31,637.09) - well above the upper estimate of USD 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean Puy - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nu Au Peignoir, which sold at auction in June 2009 for GBP 73,250.00 (€ 85,956.42).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Jean Puy erzielte im November 2020 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art Day Sale wurde die Arbeit Femme Endormie für USD 37.800,00 (€ 31.637,09) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 18.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Jean Puy mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Nu Au Peignoir beobachtet, die im Juni 2009 für GBP 73.250,00 (€ 85.956,42) versteigert wurde.
