Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Horace Pippin achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in May 2018. In the American Art auction, the work Cyclamen sold for USD 225,000.00 (€ 192,802.06) - well above the upper estimate of USD 100,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Horace Pippin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Holy Mountain, I in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 3,255,000.00 (€ 2,874,679.86).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Horace Pippin erzielte im Mai 2018 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion American Art wurde die Arbeit Cyclamen für USD 225.000,00 (€ 192.802,06) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 100.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Horace Pippin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Holy Mountain, I im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.255.000,00 (€ 2.874.679,86).
