Upper estimate price exceeded by 71 %.
In November last year Christies in New York held the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included the work Self-Portrait (Fright Wig) by Andy Warhol. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,197,000.00 (€ 1,159,546.64), 71% 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 um 71 % übertroffen
Im November letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Self-Portrait (Fright Wig) von Andy Warhol zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 1.197.000,00 (€ 1.159.546,64) und damit 71% 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).
