Upper estimate price exceeded by 73 %.

In November 2020 Sothebys in London held the auction 20th Century Art: A Different Perspective, which included the work In Memoriam Josef Albers by András Mengyán. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 13,860.00 (€ 15,472.44), 73% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by András Mengyán; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Logic of Forms (Permutation of Three Unit Forms in Plane without Repetition) sold at auction in April last year with the realized price of EUR 23,940.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis um 73 % übertroffen
