Upper estimate price exceeded by 62 %.
The work French Alma Mater by Virginie Demont-Breton was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2009. It achieved a price of USD 64,900.00 (€ 43,985.09), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 62%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Virginie Demont-Breton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work French Femme De Pêcheur Venant De Baigner Ses Enfants in February 2019 with an auction result of USD 543,000.00 (€ 477,194.83).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 62 % übertroffen
