A top price for Nicola Simbari
When the work La Plage by Nicola Simbari was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 12,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 37,500.00 (€ 30,989.17). This high result makes La Plage the most expensive artwork by Nicola Simbari that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Nicola Simbari
Als die Arbeit La Plage von Nicola Simbari im Dezember 2014 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 12.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 37.500,00 (€ 30.989,17) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht La Plage zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Nicola Simbari, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
