Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2018 Christies in New York held the auction Property from the Collection of Harry W. and Mary Margaret Anderson Online, which included the work Drawing #616 by Roy De Forest. The »bidding war« ended at USD 6,000.00 (€ 5,237.43), 20% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Roy De Forest achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Steamship of Fate in July 2015 with an auction result of USD 68,750.00 (€ 62,341.31).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Dezember 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Property from the Collection of Harry W. and Mary Margaret Anderson Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Drawing #616 von Roy De Forest zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 6.000,00 (€ 5.237,43) und damit 20% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Roy De Forest erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Steamship of Fate im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 68.750,00 (€ 62.341,31).
