Found at Christies, Hong Kong (Online Auction)
Prints and Multiples, Lot 66
13. Sep - 27. Sep 2023
Estimate: 70.000 - 100.000 GBP
Price realised: 176.400 GBP
VINCENT van GOGH (1853-1890) L'Homme à la Pipe: Portrait du Docteur Gachet etching printed in brown with an even plate tone, 1890, on Arches laid paper, a very good impression of the artist's only etching, printed by the artist with Dr. P. F. Gachet, or by Dr. Gachet alone, with Gachet's inscription ` (Vincent) van Gogh ' (lower right, recto ) and ' L'homme à la pipe - Eau forte unique de (Vincent) van Gogh, peintre et dessinateur hollandais mort le 28 juillet 1890 ' (lower centre, verso ) in ink Plate 179 x 150 mm. Sheet 318 x 228 mm.

Upper estimate price exceeded by 76 %.

This artwork by Vincent van Gogh achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in September this year. In the Prints and Multiples auction, the work L'Homme à la Pipe: Portrait du Docteur Gachet sold for GBP 176,400.00 (€ 176,400.00) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 100,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vincent van Gogh achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Verger avec cyprès in November last year with an auction result of USD 117,180,000.00 (€ 113,513,513.51).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 76 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Vincent van Gogh erzielte im September diesen Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Prints and Multiples wurde die Arbeit L'Homme à la Pipe: Portrait du Docteur Gachet für GBP 176.400,00 (€ 176.400,00) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 100.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Vincent van Gogh erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Verger avec cyprès im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 117.180.000,00 (€ 113.513.513,51).
