Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Sol LeWitt achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in June this year. In the Prints and Multiples auction, the work Lines, Not Long, Not Heavy, Not Touching, Drawn At Random (Circle) sold for GBP 1,664.00 (€ 1,936.61) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sol LeWitt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Wavy Brushstrokes in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 449,000.00 (€ 636,531.19).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Sol LeWitt erzielte im Juni diesen Jahres bei Bonhams einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Prints and Multiples wurde die Arbeit Lines, Not Long, Not Heavy, Not Touching, Drawn At Random (Circle) für GBP 1.664,00 (€ 1.936,61) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sol LeWitt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Wavy Brushstrokes im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 449.000,00 (€ 636.531,19).
