Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Steep Street by Wayne Thiebaud was sold in the Thiebaud from Thiebaud: Prints and Works on Paper from the Private Studio of Wayne Thiebaud auction at Christies in New York in September 2016. The »bidding war« ended at USD 11,875.00 (€ 10,566.83), 19% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wayne Thiebaud achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Encased Cakes in July last year with an auction result of HKD 79,200,000.00 (€ 9,882,532.84).

Die Arbeit Steep Street von Wayne Thiebaud wurde im September 2016 in der Auktion Thiebaud from Thiebaud: Prints and Works on Paper from the Private Studio of Wayne Thiebaud bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 11.875,00 (€ 10.566,83) und damit 19% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wayne Thiebaud erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Encased Cakes im Juli letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 79.200.000,00 (€ 9.882.532,84).
