A top price for Herman Rose

When the work Flowers On A Chair by Herman Rose was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 2,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at USD 8,190.00 (€ 6,807.98). This high result makes Flowers On A Chair the most expensive artwork by Herman Rose that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Herman Rose

Als die Arbeit Flowers On A Chair von Herman Rose im April 2021 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 2.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 8.190,00 (€ 6.807,98) mehr als viermal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Flowers On A Chair zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Herman Rose, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
