This artwork by Alfred Jensen achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in May 2021. In the The Artist’s Eye: The Collection of Tom Levine auction, the work The Pure Colour Polarity Double-sided work sold for USD 15,120.00 (€ 12,399.54) - well above the upper estimate of USD 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alfred Jensen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Heaven; Per I and II in September 2013 with an auction result of USD 477,750.00 (€ 352,973.77).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Alfred Jensen erzielte im Mai 2021 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Artist’s Eye: The Collection of Tom Levine wurde die Arbeit The Pure Colour Polarity Double-sided work für USD 15.120,00 (€ 12.399,54) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alfred Jensen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Heaven; Per I and II im September 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 477.750,00 (€ 352.973,77).
