A top price for Parker Ito
When the work The Agony And The Ecstasy by Parker Ito was auctioned at Sothebys in London in February 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 15,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 56,250.00 (€ 68,244.78). This high result makes The Agony And The Ecstasy the most expensive artwork by Parker Ito that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Parker Ito
Als die Arbeit The Agony And The Ecstasy von Parker Ito im Februar 2014 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 15.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 56.250,00 (€ 68.244,78) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht The Agony And The Ecstasy zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Parker Ito, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
