Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Anish Kapoor achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in April 2021. In the Contemporary Curated auction, the work Wounds And Absent Objects sold for GBP 81,900.00 (€ 94,208.83) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Anish Kapoor achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in July 2008 with an auction result of GBP 1,945,250.00 (€ 2,471,462.02).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Anish Kapoor erzielte im April 2021 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Curated wurde die Arbeit Wounds And Absent Objects für GBP 81.900,00 (€ 94.208,83) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 35.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Anish Kapoor erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Juli 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.945.250,00 (€ 2.471.462,02).
