Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
In October 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master, Modern and Contemporary Prints, which included the work Feuilles Eparses (D. 120-121) by Joan Miró. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 6,000.00 (€ 7,647.85), 50% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joan Miró achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Peinture (Étoile Bleue) in June 2012 with an auction result of GBP 23,561,250.00 (€ 29,174,436.97).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master, Modern and Contemporary Prints durch, in der auch die Arbeit Feuilles Eparses (D. 120-121) von Joan Miró zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 7.647,85) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joan Miró erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Peinture (Étoile Bleue) im Juni 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 23.561.250,00 (€ 29.174.436,97).
