Artwork auctioned at 17 times the upper estimate price
The work Le Phenix by Marcel Jean was worth USD 5,250.00 (€ 4,708.94) to a buyer in May 2019. This price was achieved in the auction The Sleep of Reason | A Private Collection of Surrealist Art Online at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 300.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Marcel Jean achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work La lune d'Eiffel in March 2021 with an auction result of GBP 94,000.00 (€ 110,425.79).

Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Marcel Jean erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit La lune d'Eiffel im März 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 94.000,00 (€ 110.425,79).
