Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Dollar Sign by Andy Warhol was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Christies in London in June 2011. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 265,250.00 (€ 293,449.82), 21% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Andy Warhol achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Shot Sage Blue Marilyn in May last year with an auction result of USD 195,040,000.00 (€ 181,753,797.41).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Dollar Sign von Andy Warhol wurde im Juni 2011 in der Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Auction bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 265.250,00 (€ 293.449,82) und damit 21% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Andy Warhol erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Shot Sage Blue Marilyn im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 195.040.000,00 (€ 181.753.797,41).
