Despite a disappointment, a good price for Otto Dix

This work of art by Otto Dix could be acquired at Sothebys in London in June 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale auction, the work Sitzender Akt Mit Blondem Haar (Seated Nude With Blond Hair) changed hands for GBP 3,513,250.00 (€ 4,350,239.94) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 4,000,000.00 – 6,000,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, Sitzender Akt Mit Blondem Haar (Seated Nude With Blond Hair) is the most expensive artwork by Otto Dix that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Otto Dix

Dieses Kunstwerk von Otto Dix konnte im Juni 2012 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale wechselte die Arbeit Sitzender Akt Mit Blondem Haar (Seated Nude With Blond Hair) für GBP 3.513.250,00 (€ 4.350.239,94) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 4.000.000,00 – 6.000.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Sitzender Akt Mit Blondem Haar (Seated Nude With Blond Hair) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Otto Dix, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
