Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.

The work Babel Xxxviii by Robert Kelly was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in July 2020. It achieved a price of USD 1,625.00 (€ 1,380.16), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Kelly achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mimesis XXI in September 2019 with an auction result of USD 25,000.00 (€ 22,925.26).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Babel Xxxviii von Robert Kelly kam im Juli 2020 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 1.625,00 (€ 1.380,16) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 35%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Kelly erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mimesis XXI im September 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 25.000,00 (€ 22.925,26).
