Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
In July this year Christies in Paris held the auction First Open: Post-War and Contemporary Art Online, which included the work Four Letter Heaven (Animation Cells) by Cecily Brown. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 15,120.00 (€ 17,640.46), 51% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Cecily Brown achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (The Beautiful and Damned) in May this year with an auction result of USD 6,705,000.00 (€ 6,293,410.93).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
Im Juli diesen Jahres führte Christies in Paris die Auktion First Open: Post-War and Contemporary Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Four Letter Heaven (Animation Cells) von Cecily Brown zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 15.120,00 (€ 17.640,46) und damit 51% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Cecily Brown erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (The Beautiful and Damned) im Mai diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 6.705.000,00 (€ 6.293.410,93).
