Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Scott Burton achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March 2015. In the First Open/NYC auction, the work Two-Part Chair sold for USD 87,500.00 (€ 81,463.55) - well above the upper estimate of USD 40,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Scott Burton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Pair of Granite Chairs, which sold at auction in October 2007 for GBP 156,500.00 (€ 224,744.30).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
