In May 2019 Christies in New York held the auction Impressionist and Modern Art Works on Paper Sale, which included the work Tête by Pablo Picasso. The »bidding war« ended at USD 15,000.00 (€ 13,454.12), 25% above the upper estimate. 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 25 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2019 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Impressionist and Modern Art Works on Paper Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Tête von Pablo Picasso zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 15.000,00 (€ 13.454,12) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
