Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
In July 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Online | New York, which included this untitled work by Lucas Samaras. The »bidding war« ended at USD 18,900.00 (€ 15,930.55), 26% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lucas Samaras achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Box #119 in March 2021 with an auction result of USD 662,500.00 (€ 564,165.89).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Im Juli 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Online | New York durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Lucas Samaras zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 18.900,00 (€ 15.930,55) und damit 26% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lucas Samaras erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Box #119 im März 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 662.500,00 (€ 564.165,89).
