Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work The Moment (Barnett Newman Foundation 227) by Barnett Newman was worth USD 37,800.00 (€ 31,861.09) to a buyer in July 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Prints & Multiples at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 10,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Barnett Newman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Black Fire I in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 84,165,000.00 (€ 61,704,545.45).
