The work Chicago Suite by Lucien Clergue was auctioned at Bonhams in London in July this year. It achieved a price of USD 3,840.00 (€ 3,484.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 54%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lucien Clergue - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nu Zébré I, New York', which sold at auction in November 2015 for EUR 12,500.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 54 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Chicago Suite von Lucien Clergue kam im Juli diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 3.840,00 (€ 3.484,57) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 54%. Für andere Arbeiten von Lucien Clergue mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Nu Zébré I, New York' beobachtet, die im November 2015 für EUR 12.500,00 versteigert wurde.
