Upper estimate price exceeded by 44 %.
The work Composition in Black and Yellow by Avigdor Arikha was sold in the Impressionist & Modern Art auction at Sothebys in New York in June 2021. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,008.00 (€ 850.78), 44% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Avigdor Arikha achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nude On A Sheet in December 2017 with an auction result of USD 162,500.00 (€ 135,168.86).

Die Arbeit Composition in Black and Yellow von Avigdor Arikha wurde im Juni 2021 in der Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 1.008,00 (€ 850,78) und damit 44% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Avigdor Arikha erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nude On A Sheet im Dezember 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 162.500,00 (€ 135.168,86).
