Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Pablo Picasso achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May 2013. In the Prints and Multiples auction, the work Face with Pursed Nose (A.R. 440) sold for USD 11,875.00 (€ 9,143.06) - well above the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pablo Picasso achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Les femmes d'Alger (Version 'O') in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 179,365,000.00 (€ 163,148,080.77).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Pablo Picasso erzielte im Mai 2013 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Prints and Multiples wurde die Arbeit Face with Pursed Nose (A.R. 440) für USD 11.875,00 (€ 9.143,06) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pablo Picasso erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Les femmes d'Alger (Version 'O') im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 179.365.000,00 (€ 163.148.080,77).
