Upper estimate price exceeded by 75 %.
This artwork by John Graham achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in March 2015. In the Contemporary Curated auction, the work Le Porte-Manteau sold for USD 43,750.00 (€ 40,731.78) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Graham achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Woman with Dodecahedron in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 1,609,000.00 (€ 1,095,452.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Graham erzielte im März 2015 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Curated wurde die Arbeit Le Porte-Manteau für USD 43.750,00 (€ 40.731,78) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 25.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Graham erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Woman with Dodecahedron im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.609.000,00 (€ 1.095.452,07).
