A top price for Stephen De Staebler
When the work Archangel by Stephen De Staebler was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2011, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 20,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than six times as high at USD 122,500.00 (€ 91,057.76). This high result makes Archangel the most expensive artwork by Stephen De Staebler that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Stephen De Staebler
Als die Arbeit Archangel von Stephen De Staebler im November 2011 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 20.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 122.500,00 (€ 91.057,76) mehr als sechsmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Archangel zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Stephen De Staebler, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
