This artwork by Cecily Brown achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in November last year. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale auction, the work without title sold for USD 1,740,000.00 (€ 1,685,556.52) - well above the upper estimate of USD 600,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cecily Brown - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled (The Beautiful and Damned), which sold at auction in May this year for USD 6,705,000.00 (€ 6,293,410.93).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

In der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale wurde diese Arbeit ohne Titel für USD 1.740.000,00 (€ 1.685.556,52) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 600.000,00.
