Upper estimate price exceeded by 87 %.
This artwork by Kaws achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in October last year. In the Pop X Culture auction, the work Stormtrooper (KAWS Version), 2008 sold for GBP 2,805.00 (€ 3,267.79) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Kaws achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Kimpsons #1) in October 2019 with an auction result of HKD 57,877,000.00 (€ 6,615,255.49).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Kaws erzielte im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Pop X Culture wurde die Arbeit Stormtrooper (KAWS Version), 2008 für GBP 2.805,00 (€ 3.267,79) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Kaws erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Kimpsons #1) im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 57.877.000,00 (€ 6.615.255,49).
