A top price for Huguette Clark

When the work Scene from My Window- Night by Huguette Clark was auctioned at Christies in New York in June 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 3,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at USD 23,750.00 (€ 17,348.43). This high result makes Scene from My Window- Night the most expensive artwork by Huguette Clark that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Huguette Clark

Als die Arbeit Scene from My Window- Night von Huguette Clark im Juni 2014 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 3.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 23.750,00 (€ 17.348,43) mehr als siebenmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Scene from My Window- Night zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Huguette Clark, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
