Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price

When the work Gang Way Day Before To Day by Karl Wirsum was auctioned at Christies in New York in July 2005, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 700.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 3,840.00 (€ 3,165.97). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Karl Wirsum achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Standing Figure in March 2015 with an auction result of USD 112,500.00 (€ 104,738.85).

Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Gang Way Day Before To Day von Karl Wirsum im Juli 2005 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 700,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 3.840,00 (€ 3.165,97) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Karl Wirsum erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Standing Figure im März 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 112.500,00 (€ 104.738,85).
