Upper estimate price exceeded by 34 %.

This work without title by Eva Hesse was sold in the Contemporary Curated auction at Sothebys in New York in September 2017. It achieved a price of USD 93,750.00 (€ 79,361.72), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 34%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eva Hesse achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work No title in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 3,980,000.00 (€ 3,569,826.89).
