Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Pool of Contemplation by Richard Pousette-Dart was auctioned at Phillips in New York in December 2020. The price achieved of USD 214,200.00 (€ 175,143.09) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 180,000.00 – 250,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Pousette-Dart achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Blood Wedding in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 2,629,000.00 (€ 2,489,111.91).
