Upper estimate price exceeded by 36 %.

The work La Blanche by Martial Raysse was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2019. It achieved a price of GBP 299,250.00 (€ 347,108.54), 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 Martial Raysse achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work L'année dernière à Capri (titre exotique) (Last Year in Capri (Exotic Title)) in February 2011 with an auction result of GBP 4,073,250.00 (€ 4,797,947.71).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 36 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit La Blanche von Martial Raysse kam im Oktober 2019 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 299.250,00 (€ 347.108,54) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 36%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Martial Raysse erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit L'année dernière à Capri (titre exotique) (Last Year in Capri (Exotic Title)) im Februar 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.073.250,00 (€ 4.797.947,71).
