Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In December 2020 Artcurial in Paris held the auction Urban & Pop Contemporary, which included the work Unknown Icons Series #4 - 2007 by Vhils. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 8,060.00 15% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Vhils have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Compro Logo Existo #6 - 2008 in February 2020 with an auction result of EUR 65,000.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im Dezember 2020 führte Artcurial in Paris die Auktion Urban & Pop Contemporary durch, in der auch die Arbeit Unknown Icons Series #4 - 2007 von Vhils zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 8.060,00 und damit 15% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Vhils auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Compro Logo Existo #6 - 2008 im Februar 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 65.000,00.
