Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Numbers and Trees: Project 1 Edition by Charles Gaines was auctioned at Phillips in New York in April last year, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 2,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 8,820.00 (€ 8,370.50). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Gaines achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Numbers And Trees: Central Park Series Iv: Tree #6, Carmichael in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 475,000.00 (€ 426,047.18).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Numbers and Trees: Project 1 Edition von Charles Gaines im April letzten Jahres bei Phillips in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 2.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 8.820,00 (€ 8.370,50) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Gaines erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Numbers And Trees: Central Park Series Iv: Tree #6, Carmichael im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 475.000,00 (€ 426.047,18).
