Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Mirror at Midnight I by William Baziotes was auctioned at Christies in October 2021. It achieved a price of USD 60,000.00 (€ 51,939.06), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Baziotes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Phantasm in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 1,332,500.00 (€ 1,119,936.12).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Mirror at Midnight I von William Baziotes kam im Oktober 2021 bei Christies zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 60.000,00 (€ 51.939,06) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 20%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Baziotes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Phantasm im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.332.500,00 (€ 1.119.936,12).
