Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Guido Argentini achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in April 2016. In the Photographs auction, the work Vacancy sold for USD 22,500.00 (€ 19,666.11) - well above the upper estimate of USD 8,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Guido Argentini; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Where Duality Begins sold at auction in November 2012 with the realized price of EUR 23,550.00.
