Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March last year Christies in New York held the auction Post-War to Present, which included this untitled work by Agnes Martin. The »bidding war« ended at USD 214,200.00 (€ 193,094.74), 19% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Agnes Martin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled #44 in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 17,728,800.00 (€ 15,707,273.85).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War to Present durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Agnes Martin zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 214.200,00 (€ 193.094,74) und damit 19% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Agnes Martin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled #44 im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 17.728.800,00 (€ 15.707.273,85).
