Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.

The work Untitled (American Robin) by Merce Cunningham was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2019. It achieved a price of USD 2,500.00 (€ 2,197.03), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Merce Cunningham - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sans titre, which sold at auction in October 2018 for EUR 5,625.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Untitled (American Robin) von Merce Cunningham kam im Februar 2019 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 2.500,00 (€ 2.197,03) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Für andere Arbeiten von Merce Cunningham mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sans titre beobachtet, die im Oktober 2018 für EUR 5.625,00 versteigert wurde.
