Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Xiprer Negre (Black Cypress) by Joan Hernández Pijuan was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2011. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 51,650.00 (€ 57,141.12). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joan Hernández Pijuan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Entre les 7 i les 8, which sold at auction in October 2007 for EUR 138,250.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Xiprer Negre (Black Cypress) von Joan Hernández Pijuan kam im Juni 2011 bei Christies in London zur Auktion.
