This artwork by Alex Katz achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in November last year. In the A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet auction, the work Bicycle Rider from, New York: Eight Contemporary Artists Celebrate Their City sold for USD 6,930.00 (€ 6,713.16) - well above the upper estimate of USD 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alex Katz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Blue Umbrella I in October 2019 with an auction result of GBP 3,375,000.00 (€ 3,914,757.96).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Alex Katz erzielte im November letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet wurde die Arbeit Bicycle Rider from, New York: Eight Contemporary Artists Celebrate Their City für USD 6.930,00 (€ 6.713,16) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alex Katz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Blue Umbrella I im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.375.000,00 (€ 3.914.757,96).
