Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Ibram Lassaw achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in February 2016. In the Living With Art auction, the work Anthea sold for USD 17,500.00 (€ 16,102.32) - well above the upper estimate of USD 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ibram Lassaw achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work October Continuity in March 2016 with an auction result of USD 197,000.00 (€ 172,958.74).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ibram Lassaw erzielte im Februar 2016 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Living With Art wurde die Arbeit Anthea für USD 17.500,00 (€ 16.102,32) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ibram Lassaw erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit October Continuity im März 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 197.000,00 (€ 172.958,74).
