Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Lily by Ellsworth Kelly was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2007. Here, the upper estimate of USD 150,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 169,000.00 (€ 115,059.91). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ellsworth Kelly achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Red Curve VII in November 2019 with an auction result of USD 9,809,000.00 (€ 8,901,896.72).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Lily von Ellsworth Kelly kam im November 2007 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 150.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 169.000,00 (€ 115.059,91) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ellsworth Kelly erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Red Curve VII im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 9.809.000,00 (€ 8.901.896,72).
