Upper estimate price exceeded by 31 %.
The work Sixth Stone II (S. 7, F. 6-B) by Lee Bontecou was sold in the Editions & Works on Paper auction at Phillips in New York in October 2021. The »bidding war« ended at USD 6,552.00 (€ 5,671.75), 31% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lee Bontecou achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in May this year with an auction result of USD 8,690,000.00 (€ 8,156,560.92).

Die Arbeit Sixth Stone II (S. 7, F. 6-B) von Lee Bontecou wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper bei Phillips in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 6.552,00 (€ 5.671,75) und damit 31% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lee Bontecou erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Mai diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.690.000,00 (€ 8.156.560,92).
