Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Modern & Contemporary African Art Online, which included the work Nº 220 & 247 (a pair) by Vincent Michéa. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,402.50 (€ 1,672.89), 17% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Vincent Michéa have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Before The Bigger Splash in May 2017 with an auction result of GBP 11,250.00 (€ 12,921.08).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Dezember 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Modern & Contemporary African Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Nº 220 & 247 (a pair) von Vincent Michéa zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.402,50 (€ 1.672,89) und damit 17% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Vincent Michéa auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Before The Bigger Splash im Mai 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.250,00 (€ 12.921,08).
