Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sentry by Seymour Lipton was sold in the Post-War to Present auction at Christies in New York in September 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 16,250.00 (€ 14,901.42) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Seymour Lipton have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in July 2018 the work The Angry Poet was auctioned for USD 32,500.00 (€ 27,763.54).
