Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Jan Lebenstein achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in May last year. In the Modern Day Auction auction, the work Axial Figure 20 sold for USD 75,600.00 (€ 70,450.10) - well above the upper estimate of USD 30,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Jan Lebenstein; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Figure Xviii sold at auction in June 2021 with the realized price of EUR 87,500.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Jan Lebenstein erzielte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern Day Auction wurde die Arbeit Axial Figure 20 für USD 75.600,00 (€ 70.450,10) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 30.000,00. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Jan Lebenstein; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Figure Xviii im Juni 2021 mit dem Hammerpreis von EUR 87.500,00.
