Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
The work Sparkle Knot Iii by Lynda Benglis was sold in the Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in November 2019. It achieved a price of USD 81,250.00 (€ 73,736.27), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lynda Benglis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Moretti in May last year with an auction result of USD 1,071,000.00 (€ 998,043.05).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Sparkle Knot Iii von Lynda Benglis wurde im November 2019 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 81.250,00 (€ 73.736,27) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 35%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lynda Benglis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Moretti im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.071.000,00 (€ 998.043,05).
