Upper estimate price exceeded by 77 %.
This artwork by Howard Mehring achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in July 2013. In the First Open: Summer Edition auction, the work Howard Mehring (1931-1978) sold for USD 2,125.00 (€ 1,599.91) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Howard Mehring achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Solar in March 2016 with an auction result of USD 52,500.00 (€ 46,093.06).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Howard Mehring erzielte im Juli 2013 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion First Open: Summer Edition wurde die Arbeit Howard Mehring (1931-1978) für USD 2.125,00 (€ 1.599,91) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.200,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Howard Mehring erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Solar im März 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 52.500,00 (€ 46.093,06).
