This artwork by Leon Kroll achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in April 2015. In the Interiors auction, the work Study for Cape Ann sold for USD 5,625.00 (€ 5,039.42) - well above the upper estimate of USD 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Leon Kroll achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Lower Manhattan in June 2020 with an auction result of USD 200,000.00 (€ 178,078.53).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 88 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Leon Kroll erzielte im April 2015 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Interiors wurde die Arbeit Study for Cape Ann für USD 5.625,00 (€ 5.039,42) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Leon Kroll erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Lower Manhattan im Juni 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 200.000,00 (€ 178.078,53).
