This artwork by René Avigdor achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in March 2005. In the BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES AND WORKS ON PAPER auction, the work Portrait of A Young Girl, Bust-Length, In A Feigned Oval sold for GBP 1,080.00 (€ 1,572.91) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by René Avigdor - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An auburn haired beauty, which sold at auction in October 2001 for USD 4,700.00 (€ 5,226.29).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von René Avigdor erzielte im März 2005 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES AND WORKS ON PAPER wurde die Arbeit Portrait of A Young Girl, Bust-Length, In A Feigned Oval für GBP 1.080,00 (€ 1.572,91) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von René Avigdor mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An auburn haired beauty beobachtet, die im Oktober 2001 für USD 4.700,00 (€ 5.226,29) versteigert wurde.
