Upper estimate price exceeded by 61 %.

This work without title by Leon Golub was sold in the Contemporary Curated auction at Sothebys in London in April 2020. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 11,250.00 (€ 12,941.35), 61% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Leon Golub achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work White Squad X in November 2014 with an auction result of USD 197,000.00 (€ 158,385.59).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 61 % übertroffen
