On October 10, 2012, Christie's Paris held an auction entitled Rendez-vous - Intérieurs Contemporains (Rendezvous - Contemporary Interiors). Among the works for sale were two abstract Beauford Delaney paintings.
The first untitled work is an aquarelle and gouache on paper. It was Lot 70 at the sale.
It is signed and dated "Beauford Delaney 1962 Paris" in the bottom right corner.
This painting sold for 3500 euros (roughly $4500).
The second work (Lot 71) is a watercolor on paper.
It is signed and dated "Beauford Delaney 61. San Telmo Mallorca" in the bottom right corner.
It also sold for 3500 euros (roughly $4500).
Both paintings came from a private collection and were authenticated for the auction by Sylvain Briet. Prices represent the hammer price (the price at which the work sells at auction) plus the buyer's premium.
Christie's sold many of Beauford's paintings in 2010 during its auction of the Darthea Speyer Collection.
