A top price for Pericles Lytras - as previously expected
The work Greek summer Path by Pericles Lytras was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2015. The price achieved of GBP 11,875.00 (€ 16,125.68) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Greek summer Path is the most expensive artwork by Pericles Lytras that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Greek summer Path von Pericles Lytras kam im Dezember 2015 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 11.875,00 (€ 16.125,68) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Greek summer Path das teuerste Kunstwerk von Pericles Lytras, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
