Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Yoko Ono could be acquired at Christies in New York in September 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Art Asia auction, the work A Hole to See the Sky Through changed hands for USD 625.00 (€ 533.37) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 800.00 – 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yoko Ono achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Play It By Trust in May 2010 with an auction result of USD 116,500.00 (€ 94,187.08).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Yoko Ono konnte im September 2020 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Art Asia wechselte die Arbeit A Hole to See the Sky Through für USD 625,00 (€ 533,37) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 800,00 – 1.200,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yoko Ono erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Play It By Trust im Mai 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 116.500,00 (€ 94.187,08).
