Upper estimate price exceeded by 96 %.
This artwork by Félix González-Torres achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in September 2019. In the Post-War to Present auction, the work "Untitled" (1992) sold for USD 68,750.00 (€ 63,044.48) - well above the upper estimate of USD 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Félix González-Torres achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Untitled" (L.A.) in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 7,669,000.00 (€ 7,260,935.43).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Félix González-Torres erzielte im September 2019 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Post-War to Present wurde die Arbeit "Untitled" (1992) für USD 68.750,00 (€ 63.044,48) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 35.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Félix González-Torres erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "Untitled" (L.A.) im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.669.000,00 (€ 7.260.935,43).
