Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Nu de la mer by Lucien Clergue was auctioned at Bonhams in February this year. The price achieved of USD 2,550.00 (€ 2,405.21) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Admittedly, works by Lucien Clergue have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Nu Zébré I, New York' in November 2015 with an auction result of EUR 12,500.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Nu de la mer von Lucien Clergue kam im Februar diesen Jahres bei Bonhams zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 2.550,00 (€ 2.405,21) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Lucien Clergue auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Nu Zébré I, New York' im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 12.500,00.
