Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2018 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Curated, which included the work Balloon Monkey (Blue), Balloon Rabbit (Red), Balloon Swan (Yellow) Three Works by Jeff Koons. It changed hands for a price of USD 37,500.00 (€ 32,266.39) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 30,000.00 – 40,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jeff Koons achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Rabbit in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 91,075,000.00 (€ 81,688,940.71).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2018 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Curated durch, in der auch die Arbeit Balloon Monkey (Blue), Balloon Rabbit (Red), Balloon Swan (Yellow) Three Works von Jeff Koons zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 37.500,00 (€ 32.266,39) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 30.000,00 – 40.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jeff Koons erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Rabbit im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 91.075.000,00 (€ 81.688.940,71).
