Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work Progression Of Brown Paper Four Works by Roman Signer was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 1,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at USD 6,250.00 (€ 5,073.05). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Roman Signer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 2 räder, which sold at auction in February 2007 for USD 26,400.00 (€ 19,954.65).
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Progression Of Brown Paper Four Works von Roman Signer im März 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 1.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 6.250,00 (€ 5.073,05) mehr als viermal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Roman Signer mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit 2 räder beobachtet, die im Februar 2007 für USD 26.400,00 (€ 19.954,65) versteigert wurde.
