This artwork by Jonathan Lasker achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March last year. In the Post-War to Present auction, the work Swank Sadness sold for USD 110,880.00 (€ 99,954.93) - well above the upper estimate of USD 60,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Jonathan Lasker; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The Discontinuous Self sold at auction in July last year with the realized price of USD 138,600.00 (€ 135,855.71).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 85 % übertroffen
