Auction result well in line with expectations

In September 2018 Phillips in New York held the auction New Now, which included the work STP by Lucien Smith. It changed hands for a price of USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,453.28) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lucien Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hobbes, The Rain Man, and My Friend Barney / Under the Sycamore Tree in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 389,000.00 (€ 285,903.28).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im September 2018 führte Phillips in New York die Auktion New Now durch, in der auch die Arbeit STP von Lucien Smith zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 7.500,00 (€ 6.453,28) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lucien Smith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hobbes, The Rain Man, and My Friend Barney / Under the Sycamore Tree im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 389.000,00 (€ 285.903,28).
