Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Leo Putz achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Cologne in April last year. In the Modern & Contemporary Auction auction, the work Halbakt in blauem Kleid (Semi Nude in Blue Dress) sold for EUR 107,100.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Leo Putz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work German Hinter Den Kulissen (Behind The Scenes), which sold at auction in June 2009 for GBP 361,250.00 (€ 423,914.76).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Leo Putz erzielte im April letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in Köln einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern & Contemporary Auction wurde die Arbeit Halbakt in blauem Kleid (Semi Nude in Blue Dress) für EUR 107.100,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 50.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Leo Putz mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit German Hinter Den Kulissen (Behind The Scenes) beobachtet, die im Juni 2009 für GBP 361.250,00 (€ 423.914,76) versteigert wurde.
