Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Demi-God by Philip Tsiàras was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale auction at Christies in New York in May this year. It achieved a price of USD 40,320.00 (€ 37,844.94), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 15%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philip Tsiàras - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Astrologer (from Topology series), which sold at auction in March this year for GBP 126,000.00 (€ 143,349.34).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
