Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Wind Totem by Dorothy Dehner was worth USD 10,000.00 (€ 8,465.25) to a buyer in September 2017. This price was achieved in the auction The Collection of Paul F. Walter at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 3,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dorothy Dehner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Septenarius in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 100,800.00 (€ 86,545.89).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Die Arbeit Wind Totem von Dorothy Dehner war einem Käufer im September 2017 USD 10.000,00 (€ 8.465,25) wert. Dieser Preise wurde in der Auktion The Collection of Paul F. Walter bei Christies in New York erzielt und übertraf den zuvor angesetzten oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00 um ein Vielfaches. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Dorothy Dehner erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Septenarius im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 100.800,00 (€ 86.545,89).
