This artwork by Mary Weatherford achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in May 2019. In the Contemporary Art Day Auction auction, the work Worlds Within Worlds sold for USD 350,000.00 (€ 313,929.50) - well above the upper estimate of USD 200,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Mary Weatherford; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Coney Island sold at auction in September last year with the realized price of USD 478,800.00 (€ 489,420.42).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
