Regarding the values for these Erté bronzes, your “La Mysterieuse” often lists with high-end galleries for prices as high as $18,000, but is just as often is offered for sale in art brokers’ classified ads in the $4,500 to $6,000 range.In the past couple of years this same piece has sold in the $1,500 to $3,000 range, a bargain compared to a private or gallery purchase.
