Upper estimate price exceeded by 100 %.

This artwork by Vija Celmins achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in April this year. In the Editions & Works on Paper auction, the work Concentric Bearings, D (G. 1222, R. fig. 19) sold for USD 13,970.00 (€ 12,653.99) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vija Celmins achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Ocean) in June 2021 with an auction result of USD 7,748,000.00 (€ 6,539,500.34).
