Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Astroscenic by Herbert Bayer was worth USD 56,562.50 (€ 49,975.70) to a buyer in December 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Post-War & Contemporary ArtFeaturing a Selection of Modern & Contemporary African Art at Bonhams in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 12,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Herbert Bayer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mirage In The Mountains, which sold at auction in July 2020 for GBP 125,000.00 (€ 139,427.98).
