Upper estimate price exceeded by 36 %.
The work Ode à Ma Mère (Ode to My Mother) (MoMA 4b-12b) by Louise Bourgeois was sold in the Editions & Works on Paper auction at Phillips in New York in April 2021. It achieved a price of USD 68,040.00 (€ 56,558.60), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 36%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louise Bourgeois achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Spider in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 32,055,000.00 (€ 28,751,457.53).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 68.040,00 (€ 56.558,60) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 36%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Louise Bourgeois erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Spider im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 32.055.000,00 (€ 28.751.457,53).
