Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2007 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included the work Column by Robert Irwin. The price achieved of USD 276,000.00 (€ 205,158.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 250,000.00 – 350,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Irwin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 8,331,600.00 (€ 7,381,589.44).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2007 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Column von Robert Irwin zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 276.000,00 (€ 205.158,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 250.000,00 – 350.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Irwin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.331.600,00 (€ 7.381.589,44).
