Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Burst #6 by Adolph Gottlieb was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction at Bonhams in May this year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 107,475.00 (€ 100,877.60), 19% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Adolph Gottlieb achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bonac in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 4,812,500.00 (€ 4,250,198.71).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Burst #6 von Adolph Gottlieb wurde im Mai diesen Jahres in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art bei Bonhams versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 107.475,00 (€ 100.877,60) und damit 19% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Adolph Gottlieb erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bonac im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 4.812.500,00 (€ 4.250.198,71).
