Upper estimate price exceeded by 39 %.
The work Rena by George Segal was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction at Bonhams in New York in November 2020. The »bidding war« ended at USD 27,812.50 (€ 23,277.95), 39% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Segal achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Dancers in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 1,025,000.00 (€ 751,466.28).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 39 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Rena von George Segal wurde im November 2020 in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 27.812,50 (€ 23.277,95) und damit 39% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Segal erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Dancers im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.025.000,00 (€ 751.466,28).
