A top price for Henry Taylor
When the work I'Ll Put A Spell On You by Henry Taylor was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 200,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at USD 975,000.00 (€ 861,079.22). This high result makes I'Ll Put A Spell On You the most expensive artwork by Henry Taylor that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Henry Taylor
Als die Arbeit I'Ll Put A Spell On You von Henry Taylor im November 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 200.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 975.000,00 (€ 861.079,22) mehr als viermal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht I'Ll Put A Spell On You zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Henry Taylor, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
