Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Peggy Preheim achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in March 2017. In the Contemporary Curated featuring works from “In Its Own Light: Property from the Collection of Ed Cohen and Victoria Shaw” auction, the work Alex sold for USD 2,500.00 (€ 2,336.89) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,200.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Peggy Preheim; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Grass Ceiling sold at auction in March 2016 with the realized price of USD 5,000.00 (€ 4,389.82).
