Upper estimate price exceeded by 79 %.
This artwork by Theodoros Stamos achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in December last year. In the First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art auction, the work Water's Edge sold for USD 10,710.00 (€ 10,011.22) - well above the upper estimate of USD 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Theodoros Stamos achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Divide in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 437,000.00 (€ 321,181.83).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 79 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Theodoros Stamos erzielte im Dezember letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art wurde die Arbeit Water's Edge für USD 10.710,00 (€ 10.011,22) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Theodoros Stamos erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Divide im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 437.000,00 (€ 321.181,83).
