This artwork by Joseph Stella achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in April this year. In the Modern American Masterworks from the Ted Shen Collection auction, the work The Bridge (Study for 'New York Interpreted') sold for USD 44,100.00 (€ 39,945.65) - 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 Joseph Stella achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tree of My Life in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 5,937,500.00 (€ 5,243,751.66).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Joseph Stella erzielte im April diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern American Masterworks from the Ted Shen Collection wurde die Arbeit The Bridge (Study for 'New York Interpreted') für USD 44.100,00 (€ 39.945,65) 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 Joseph Stella erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tree of My Life im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.937.500,00 (€ 5.243.751,66).
