A top price for Al Loving

When this work without title by Al Loving was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2019, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 30,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 93,750.00 (€ 85,969.74). This high result makes the work without title the most expensive artwork by Al Loving that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Al Loving

Als die Arbeit ohne Titel von Al Loving im September 2019 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 30.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 93.750,00 (€ 85.969,74) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht das Werk ohne Titel zum teuersten Kunstwerk von Al Loving, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
