Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Carel Visser achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in New York in May 2021. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction, the work Dubbelvorm 1 (Double form 1) sold for USD 75,312.50 (€ 61,761.93) - well above the upper estimate of USD 35,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Carel Visser; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Dubbelvorm 5 (Double form 5) sold at auction in October last year with the realized price of EUR 94,500.00.
