Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
The work Vitas Gerulaitis by Andy Warhol was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2019. It achieved a price of USD 375,000.00 (€ 340,321.26), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. 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 25 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Vitas Gerulaitis von Andy Warhol kam im November 2019 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 375.000,00 (€ 340.321,26) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. 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).
