In April 2015 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Post-War and Contemporary, which included the work Man by Roger Raveel. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 13,750.00 53% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Roger Raveel - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Belgian Kar, which sold at auction in December 2007 for EUR 53,050.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 53 % übertroffen
Im April 2015 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Post-War and Contemporary durch, in der auch die Arbeit Man von Roger Raveel zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 13.750,00 und damit 53% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Roger Raveel mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Belgian Kar beobachtet, die im Dezember 2007 für EUR 53.050,00 versteigert wurde.
