The work Untitled by Simone Leigh was sold in the Contemporary Curated auction at Sothebys in New York in September 2019. It achieved a price of USD 87,500.00 (€ 80,238.42), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 46%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Simone Leigh achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Stick in May this year with an auction result of USD 2,712,000.00 (€ 2,545,522.81).

Die Arbeit Untitled von Simone Leigh wurde im September 2019 in der Auktion Contemporary Curated bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 87.500,00 (€ 80.238,42) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 46%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Simone Leigh erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Stick im Mai diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.712.000,00 (€ 2.545.522,81).
